April is National Credit Union Youth Month and Financial Literacy Month. Credit Unions take pride in financial education all year, but April provides a special time to focus on teaching youth and young adults the importance of saving and managing money.
First Community is focused on educating youth and young adults about the importance of finding ways to save money while learning how to approach the financial responsibilities that come with adulthood. We have compiled an assortment of fun tasks to encourage learning, outdoor activities, and creativity. We hope to encourage basic banking tasks, awareness of financial literacy, and the importance of saving, all while having fun! Building strong financial habits early is important and we want to encourage learning how to save and spend wisely!
