Hey kids! Appalachian Community Federal Credit Union offers a "Kids Savings Club" account. The account is intended for the young savers up to the age of 12. This account helps to teach our children fun and exciting ways to establish good savings habits! Kids receive their own membership cards and other gifts when they make their first deposit. Members earn Kid Club Dollars for every $5 (not including payroll transfer deposits from relatives) they deposit into their account. With these dollars, members may purchase special premium items. Dividends are paid quarterly.

 

 

 

 
Teens and young adults: How would you like the keys to a new car?

Freedom, independence, control. You want it? You’ve gotta earn it. Want your own checking account? You need to show that you know the rules. Just like driving a car. No license? No car.

How do you show you’re ready for the keys to financial independence?  Visit Guides to Independence on the Appalachian Community Federal Credit Union web site, just click the link above.
Guides to Independence allows teens like you to prove your ability to “learn the rules” through a series of interactive online courses.
Never had a checking account? Try "How to Start a Checking Account" and "How to Balance a Checking Account." These courses take only about 15 minutes each to complete. They have lots of fun quizzes, simulations, and interactions that will show you how to safely and accurately manage your own checking account.
At the end of each course, you can print a certificate of completion that allows you to download a free music file from the eMusic^® library of more than 1.4 million songs.
