Every parent’s dream is for his or her child to grow up healthy and successful. Being successful doesn’t happen over night, it takes years and years of practice and instilling the correct behavior, whether that be saving habits, morals, work ethic, etc. Starting these habits at a young age can help your child in the future.
To help our members in this process, we have re-vamped our Sandy Saver’s Accounts. During the month of April you can bring your child in to open a Sandy Saver’s Account, and they will automatically receive a gift card incentive for starting good savings habits. Upon opening their account, they will also receive a stamp card. For every $10 deposited, they will get one stamp. Once they have collected 5 stamps, they get to choose a prize from the treasure chest.
Current Sandy Saver members can also participate. Just ask any Teller or Member Service Representative and they can get you a stamp card.
Most kids want to spend their money as soon as they get it, so this gives them a little bit of an incentive to save instead. Along with the prizes, Sandy Saver members will also receive a birthday card and newsletter in the mail. It is our hope that by instilling good savings habits in our younger generation, they will grow up and have a successful future. Click here for more details on Sandy Savers 2.0.
