INDIANAPOLIS — FORUM Credit Union and the Indianapolis Colts have once again teamed up for the Aware Team Contest for youth ages nine to 12.

Available at all FORUM branches were this year's essay contest forms that asked younger members to answer the question, “If you had $1 million to donate, who would you give it to and why?”

An Allisonville Elementary School third grade student wrote the winning essay when he responded that cancer research would benefit from his boon since his family has been personally impacted by the disease.

His prize? Meeting Colts Tight End Bryan Fletcher and having him come to the school. The student also received a $500 Educational IRA from FORUM.

The entire elementary school student body had an opportunity to interact with Fletcher during a question and answer session after his speech that highlighted how sports and education work hand-in-hand.

This is the third year FORUM has partnered with the Indianapolis Colts for this promotion.
