Following the financial wisdom found in the Bible, learning to save is foundational to being financially healthy. Therefore, we encourage wise savings habits in our youth members. Monthly, every youth from grades 1-12 are rewarded with a monetary bonus when they meet a savings goal based on their grade, as outlined below.
Additionally, this initiative supports the 12 Christian schools that participate in our Youth Banking Program. Schools receive a monthly matching bonus when students with Youth Banking accounts meet their savings goals.
