A month to highlight financial well-being

The start of April marks National Credit Union Youth Month and Financial Literacy Month, two great opportunities for credit unions to promote their Financial Well-being for All efforts.

National Credit Union Youth Month is a chance to instill good financial habits in our youngest members, and display what the credit union difference means to a whole new generation of future members.

This year’s Youth Month theme is “Unleash the Power of Saving at Your Credit Union™,” with credit unions encouraging kids to spend and save wisely through contests, giveaways, and more. Use the hashtag #CUYouthMonth to share your activities on social media. Thank you to Ever Green 3C for their generous sponsorship of this initiative.

Financial Literacy Month celebrates its 19th year in 2023, and we’ll engage with members of Congress and other policymakers throughout the month. We encourage credit unions to meet with members in their districts, particularly during the upcoming recess (March 31 to April 16).
