Democracy Federal Credit Union values the importance of financial literacy and teaching our youth the ways in which saving, spending and earning money is important. We created our Youth Page to provide financial resources to elementary, middle and high school students as a way of teaching them the importance of money through articles, activities and games. Democracy FCU’s Youth Page offers ideas on how to identify different values of money, tips for acing a job interview and planning for college.
Our Youth Page provides an educational platform to help students develop healthy savings habits as a way to engage our young members about the importance of credit unions and how we can help them on their path to Financial Freedom! The Youth Page also offers a whimsical theme for students to feel a sense of joy in saving for that special occasion. In addition to providing financial literacy, our Youth Page provides activities and tools for students that they can use in and outside of the classroom. We understand that students learn differently and the activities that we chose all provide a valuable resource to students in a fun and enjoyable way that will make them want to keep learning!
To kick off announcing our Youth Page, Democracy FCU’s VP of Delivery Channels, Mario Mejia, and family, provide website visitors with a creative introduction to our Youth Page. Share in their excitement here! Share in the fun at DemocracyFCU.org/Youth.
