During the month of April, credit unions in Vermont and across the country celebrate National Credit Union Youth Month and National Financial Literacy Month. While credit unions take financial education seriously all year long, this month provides us with even more opportunities to work with our members and community partners to promote financial wellness.
To help your credit union tailor its efforts to younger members, we encourage you to join our Association in promoting the theme “Save Away for a Rainy Day” because when kids learn about the importance of saving money for the future, they are laying the foundation for financial success!
Below are graphics and sample messaging that credit unions can share on their social media channels. The hashtag #CUYouthMonth can also be utilized 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 is a younger members activity booklet.
Special Thanks to the Maine Credit Union League for creating and sharing this year's materials for everyone to use. People Helping People and collaboration is what our movement is all about!
