Bannockburn (IL) Financial literacy is a crucial life skill for young people, but its one that too few are learning. Thats why in April, Great Lakes Credit Union (GLCU) is focusing on helping our young adults become more financially fit. For the entire month, GLCU will be hosting events that will help local students strengthen their money skills and pump up their savings.
"Financial education and commitment to the community are part of the foundation of our business structure," Vikki Kaiser, President/CEO said. "Passing along basic money skills to the next generation so that young adults might have a brighter future embodies both of those principlesand thats what we believe it means to be credit union strong."
