Blog | Help Your Kids Fulfill Their Big Dreams
Resource One Credit Union wants to help your kids fulfill their big dreams.
Our youth savings accounts can encourage kids to practice good financial habits that will enable them to fulfill their dreams.
Dreaming big doesn’t mean you need to start with big actions.
The first small step is usually the hardest, but you can use momentum to propel you forward once it’s taken. This year’s National Credit Union Youth Month theme is “Save Small. Dream Big. at your credit union.” It uses the image of a magical rainbow with a wish-fulfilling gold star at the end. We want to tell young members that their dreams are attainable, no matter how big they are.
Resource One has tools to help fulfill these dreams.
With a youth saving account that earns interest, young members can deposit small amounts on a regular basis and watch their savings grow “like magic.” The earlier they start a savings account, the more it will grow, and the easier it will be to achieve their dreams. Learning this good financial habit at a young age will set them up on the path of successful financial well-being.
Our members 12 years and younger receive an account opening gift, a $10 gift card on their birthday, and prizes for reaching deposit goals!
Members between the ages of 13-17 can begin the next money management steps with their own debit card.
Start your journey during National Credit Union Youth Month.
If you have been wondering how to empower your kids to save for their future, National Credit Union Youth Month is a great opportunity to start! Join us this April as credit unions across the country encourage youth to start saving regularly. This celebration is a great time to engage kids at Resource One and within your community to help them learn that saving, no matter how small the amount, can help them achieve their dreams.
