Michael Cary, a firefighter at Enka-Candler Fire and Rescue in Buncombe County, a newlywed, and foster dad is the winner of a 2021 Hybrid Ford F-150 truck, the main prize from the Civic Federal Credit Union Torque & Pork contest.
Michael Cary, a firefighter of eight years, is a newlywed and foster dad with a heart of service. He has spent the last three years with the Enka-Candler Fire & Rescue in Buncombe County. 'I always enter contests and never win,' said Cary. 'The timing couldn't be more perfect; we are adopting our two small foster children this month. It's just so perfect for our family.'
In October, firefighter Cary spoke with a colleague about the Civic contest and half-jokingly said, 'let's win this truck.' He opened a Civic checking account and started earning entries using his debit card. When he was notified by Civic about his win, Cary thought it was a joke. 'I called back a few times—just to make sure it was legit and it wasn't a joke. I thought it was a prank, I just couldn't believe it. I am so grateful to Civic for this to happen in my life at this moment.'
