This year marked a special milestone for Advance America: team members from four Advance America Texas branches joined the festivities for the very first time. 

Representing Fort Worth, Haltom City, Burleson, and Mansfield, our teams were among more than 200 local vendors connecting with families and neighbors across the Dallas-Fort Worth community. 

Mayfest was more than a fun day out — it was a chance to be part of something bigger. Our team had meaningful conversations with attendees about Advance America’s services, notably Texas’s Installment Loan, which offers up to $5,000 in flexible support. The event also gave us the opportunity to engage with potential customers and share how our team is committed to serving all communities with respect and care.

• Fort Worth
• Haltom City
• Burleson
• Mansfield

Reflecting on the experience, Darlene Franckiewicz, Divisional Director of Operations, shared: 

[Everyone] was grateful for the opportunity to get out with the community to promote our services to such a large crowd and can't wait to do it again next year!”

Being part of events like Mayfest helps us connect face-to-face with the people we serve — and reminds us why we do what we do: to support individuals and families with financial solutions that meet their everyday needs, right where they are.
