Youth

Savings

It's important for kids to learn good money habits. Saving money consistently means you will be prepared. No matter what the future brings, your savings will be there when you need it, whether it's for a new outfit, a trip to the movies, saving to buy your first car or starting a college career.

Minnesota Valley Federal Credit Union offers higher yield accounts to youth to help build savings.
