This Year’s PFD – Turn It Into Something Bigger with Our $26,000 Giveaway

You know that Permanent Fund Dividend we all get every fall? It’s one of those uniquely Alaska things that doesn’t exist anywhere else in the U.S. — a reminder of why we love living here.

What Are You Doing With Your PFD This Year?

Maybe it’s going toward a family trip out to Denali, stocking the freezer with fish for the winter, or treating yourself to fresh king crab without thinking twice. Whatever it is, it’s your call.

As a way to give back to our members here in Alaska, we want to help make this year’s PFD payout even better.
