Thanks to a local nonprofit, Frank was able to get some help and turn his life around. In 1988, he ended up working at a local school as a custodian, leading to a steady paycheck. He needed somewhere to deposit those paychecks, so staff at the school suggested TTCU. That launched a long relationship.

My friend and I put our last few dollars together to buy an acoustic guitar for me in Barcelona," Ann said. "I have it to this day, and used it to play songs with the kids at school... TTCU helped make that happen.

Over the past thirty-five years, as his family grew bigger, the cars grew bigger as well. Larry married and had three children, and financed more than 10 cars with TTCU.

When Carolyn became a teacher in Tahlequah, a school board member encouraged her to become a member of TTCU based on TTCU's history of supporting teachers.

Back when I joined TTCU, they didn't have a branch here. I graduated from Broken Arrow High School in 1986, and I went to the TTCU Midtown location to get my account all set up before I went off to Northeastern State University.
