Youth Savings Pathway

Financial Institution: First Community Credit Union

The Youth Savings Program provides age-based account options designed to support children and teens as they begin building financial habits and learning money management skills. The program is structured to grow with young members, offering appropriate savings and checking solutions as they move through different stages of development.

The program includes three accounts: Rising Stars for ages 12 and under, Blue Youth Savings for ages 17 and under, and GenNow for ages 13 to 18. Each account is designed to encourage saving, introduce responsible money use, and support financial learning in a way that aligns with the member’s age and experience level.

Financial education is further enhanced through Zogo, a gamified learning platform available within the First Community mobile app and online banking. Zogo provides interactive lessons and rewards that help young members build financial knowledge in an engaging and accessible way.

Together, these accounts and digital learning tools create a developmental pathway that helps young members build confidence with money, establish strong savings habits early, and transition smoothly into more advanced financial products as they grow.
