"When you walk through the doors of Tinker Federal Credit Union, there is always someone ready to greet you with a smile. I love how they always embrace the community. From supporting our East Central University college, local fundraisers and helping everyone that needs a loan, whether it be for their car, lawnmower, motorcycle, or a home loan, Tinker Federal Credit Union is far above them all."
