Teach Your Child to Save
Saving is cool, but giving back is way cooler. Make saving fun and help kids give back to their community with our Youth Savings Account*. We recently added a new community component to our Youth Savings accounts. At account opening, you and your child will have the opportunity to choose from four non-profit organizations below for FCFCU to donate $10 to on your behalf!3 Visit your local branch to open an account today, because you're never too young to learn how to save!
The organizations we will be supporting in our community are:
Massachusetts Coalition for the Homeless: A Bed for Every Child
Provides children in need in Massachusetts with safe and comfortable beds built by volunteers, along with bedding and a stuffed animal. They believe that every child deserves a place to rest and dream big.
Friends of Jack Foundation
Provides children with superhero capes, masks, and bears to help them feel less alone while undergoing necessary medical treatment. They also pay for the salary and all associated costs of child life specialists at local hospitals throughout the South Coast and Providence, RI.
Boys and Girls Clubs of Metro South-Taunton Clubhouse
A youth development organization that ensures every child has a positive place to spend their out-of-school-time hours. They believe every child deserves an equal chance to pursue the American Dream, to have a genuine opportunity to realize their full potential to achieve a great future.
