Return to AlaTrust Credit Union
At AlaTrust Credit Union, we believe that financial literacy is one of the most important skills for young people to develop. It helps them make better decisions about their money, and it can also help them avoid mistakes that could cause a lifetime of financial difficulties.
Our goal is to teach young people about budgeting, saving for the future and other valuable skills that will help them throughout their lives. Providing financial literacy is one way we give back to our community and Sponsor Employer Groups (SEG). Financial literacy is offered to students of all grade levels. We hope you'll join us in supporting this important program!

Schedule a Class Financial Literacy Overview
One thing we've learned since offering financial literacy resources is that sometimes the people with the most questions aren't sure who to ask or where to start!
In an effort to bring financial literacy to where people are and decrease the stigma of asking for help, we partner with local coffee shops to offer a "Financial Literacy Hour". If you ask our representatives any financial question, than you can get any one drink free at the coffee shop we are "popped-up" at!
Thank you to our coffee shop host partners who make this program possible!
Through the AlaTrust4U Foundation we have provided our financial literacy simulation, Bite of Reality, to hundreds of schools in Alabama since 2021. Our simulation provides life changing knowledge and lessons in a hands on way to help children learn, experience, and remember the importance of financial choices.
