Cents-ible Savers Club
For students in participating Waltham Schools (Grades 1- 6).
Welcome
RTN Federal Credit Union is pleased to offer the “Cents-ible Saver Club” to the students in grades one through six. The Cents-ible Saver Club is a savings program designed to teach students the power of saving and other key financial concepts. For students who already participate in this club, the days the Credit Union will be at the school are listed below. Students interested in opening a Cents-ible Savers Club account can see the Credit Union representative on any of these days to obtain the necessary forms. We welcome all elementary school students of Bright, Douglas MacArthur, Northeast, Fitzgerald and Our Lady's schools to take advantage of this program.
How Does It Work?
An initial deposit of $5.00, a completed membership card and photocopies of both the parent's government issued ID and child's social security card is necessary to open an account. Each interested student will see our credit union representative on the scheduled days. All student members earn dividends on their savings account.
When Are Deposits Made?
It varies by school, please refer to your school schedule also a Credit Union Representative will visit the school to accept deposits and answer questions. There is a minimum deposit of $1.00. Students will receive a receipt of their deposit and will update their School/Credit Union Passbook sheets. These sheets will be provided to student depositors to keep their own records of their Credit Union activity. Confirmation will be completed by comparing these to the monthly statement.
Prizes
To help students reach their goals, the following prizes are awarded to students as they reach savings balances of $5.00, $25.00 and $100.00:
