It’s never too early to start saving money.
WCCU believes that it is important to instill money saving habits at a young age. Our Youth Savings Accounts are designed to do just that. To serve the needs of all ages, our Youth Club Account is designed for children up to 12 years. Our Student Club Account is a special account for our members of age 13-17. Both accounts require only a $5 minimum.
Special WCCU contests, newsletters and functions are geared for our Youth Club Account Members.
