Now more than ever, it is important to put an emphasis on saving – but also now more than ever, it is important to put an emphasis on fun!  That’s what we’re trying to do this year during Youth Month; we’ll incorporate some learning, offer some assistance with saving, and most importantly, have some fun!

Take a look at some of the exciting things we’re offering now through the end of May. And parents, don’t forget to check out our sweepstakes below!

Grow with Trademark!

For New Members

Anyone who opens a youth account (ages 17 and under) during the month of April will receive a Trademark Tree (White Spruce) sapling in the mail!

Make sure to send us a picture of you planting it – and we would love updates over the years! Show us how big your Trademark Tree* is growing as you and your financial goals grow along with it.

Email us at MemberServices@TrademarkFCU.org or click here to fill out this form and open an account today!

For Current Members

You can have the chance to get a Trademark Tree* too! Here are the two different ways you can get your tree:

  • Open and fund a Youth Certificate
  • Open a checking account and debit card on a Youth Account (you will need mom, dad or a guardian for this)

*Limit one tree per Member.

Play our virtual fitness fair game!

This month, we’re offering a special website that takes your child on a money management tour. This simulation is similar to the game of “LIFE”. In this game, you will be given a career and a monthly income and then proceed to visit booths associated with various expenses that the average adult is faced with each month. Your goal is to create a monthly budget that does not exceed your monthly income.

Designed to look and feel like an in-person financial fitness fair, which typically takes place in a school gymnasium, this Money Management Experience is now easily accessible for Trademark Members!
