DreamBIG Student Banking
Dream BIG and Achieve Financial Success!
It’s important to start building a solid financial foundation at an early age. That’s why we partner with local schools to offer DreamBIG Student Banking, AmeriCU’s Student Banking Program. Get your students started on the road to financial success today!
When your school participates in DreamBIG Student Banking, your students can:
- Open an AmeriCU Youth Savings Account
Designed for our youngest members to encourage them to start good savings habits early. Open with as little as a penny! - Earn. Save. Grow. Repeat!
Whether it’s an allowance, money from babysitting, or just spare change, help your students start saving. They’ll learn important money management skills and be surprised how fast a little bit of savings can add up. - Participate in Virtual Financial Wellness Classes
AmeriCU now offers Financial Wellness classes virtually, on a variety of topics! Students can take part in our seminars or use our interactive, informative, and engaging curriculum to learn about savings, money basics, budgeting, and more!
