Beginning today, the first 500 dads who visit one of six designated, Valley-wide Desert Financial Credit Union branch locations during business hours will secure two free Harkins movie tickets, along with two coveted Harkins Theatres Loyalty Cups.

Dads interested in the tickets do not need to be a member of Desert Financial Credit Union, nor is any purchase required. They will simply need to mention “Father’s Day” to a teller at one of the six locations.

Pickup will be available at select Desert Financial Credit Union locations during branch hours from Thursday, June 13 until supplies last, or through Saturday, June 15 (whichever happens first). Interested dads can find the eligible location nearest them on Desert Financial’s Facebook page. The locations are:

Desert Financial Credit Union, which turned 80 last month, is continuing its ‘Random Acts of Kindness’ campaign, spreading joy across the Valley.
