Join Us for National Credit Union Youth Month in April

^{Read time: 41 secs}

In addition to April’s National Financial Literacy Month, credit unions nationwide celebrate National Credit Union Youth Month. While credit unions take financial education seriously all year, April presents even more opportunities to work with our members and community partners to promote financial wellness.

To help your credit union tailor your efforts to younger members, the Maine Credit Union League and Cornerstone encourage you to promote the theme “A Sea of Savings” because when kids learn about the importance of saving money for the future, they lay the foundation for financial success.

The Maine Credit Union League has created materials for all credit unions to echo this concept in your activities.

The hashtag #CUYouthMonth, along with sample messages, can also be used on social media to demonstrate the power of our collaborative efforts. The messaging can be edited and customized to reflect your credit union’s brand. Also included are coloring pages and a word search to help engage younger members.
