Youth Accounts

Hope to see you in April 2023

Be sure to stop by Corry Jamestown Credit Union in April for Youth Month. Bring your child in to open an account or make a deposit into their current youth account. Every youth opening an account or making a deposit will receive promotional items reminding them to "Unleash The Power of Saving at Your Credit Union". Each time your child makes a deposit in the month of April, they may enter to win a variety of prizes. Also, they may enter the National Youth Saving Challenge.* Have your youth complete and return this years coloring sheet with name and phone number included to be entered in CJCU's coloring contest. Coloring contest for youth ages 12 and under. Plan to join us in April and teach your youth to unleash their savings power.

*What are the official contest rules?
The National Youth Saving Challenge™ is free and open to all youth under 18 who visit a participating credit union during April. While youth are encouraged to make a deposit at the credit union, no deposit is required to enter.

Parents/guardians giving permission for their youth to enter can submit on a 3" x 5" piece of paper the following information to the credit union: Name, Date and Current Age.

Limit one entry per person. Odds of winning depend on number of entrants. This contest is void where prohibited.

In May, Credit Union National Association (CUNA) will randomly select and give a $1,000 grand prize to a participating credit union. That credit union will then randomly select 10 winners from its entrants. Your credit union will notify you if you are a winner.

What We Offer

Saving has never been more fun!

Teaching your kids about saving money can have many benefits besides the obvious earned interest. Learning to save up for a large purchase or even using their own funds to buy smaller items like toys or candy, can teach kids to make good financial decisions in the future. Being prepared to wait until they are able to pay for items can help children refrain from getting into debt later in life. Managing their own account is also a great way to experience real-life financial issues like keeping track of balances, using a debit card, and managing income.
