HOUSTON — People's Trust Federal Credit Union's quirky "Happy Un-Banking" awareness campaign has been recognized at the 46th Annual Houston Advertising Federation ADDY Awards.

Developed by the credit union's advertising agency of record Richards/Carlberg, the bold "Banks Hate Us" billboard campaign won a Gold ADDY Award as the best outdoor campaign in Houston. The agency also won three Citations of Excellence for the following: overall campaign, the campaign microsite (www.happyun-banking.com), and for a print ad that ran in Time, Newsweek and US News and World Report.

"The team at Richards/Carlberg was brilliant at creating a fun and simple way of introducing us to the city of Houston. For many years, we have been pressed to overcome the big question most people have when they hear our name: 'What's a credit union?'" said People's Trust Executive Vice President Patricia Garcia.
