Credit union to offer relief

The ongoing federal government shutdown has prompted Tinker Federal Credit Union, a local financial institution with a branch in Cross Roads, to offer financial relief to people directly affected by the shutdown.

Tinker is offering fee refunds, 0% loans for qualifying members, interestonly payment plans and no-fee skip-apayment opportunities, the release said.

'As the ongoing government shutdown continues to impact U.S. citizens, Tinker Federal Credit Union (TFCU) has launched a hardship relief program to help its members stay financially steady and is making donations to help our communities during this uncertain time,' according to the release.
