National Credit Union Youth Month

  • Be a credit union saver and your savings will never go extinct.

    Every April, National Credit Union Youth Month serves to encourage kids to develop healthy saving habits by making savings fun and exciting. This campaign is your credit union's opportunity to engage with young members and show them that your credit union is there to help them throughout their financial journey.

    “Be a credit union saver and your savings will never go extinct.” is the official theme of this year's National Credit Union Youth Month.

    This Jurassic theme makes saving for the future fun and helps younger members appreciate the importance of putting money aside.
