Welcome to the Honey Huddle!

Empowering Kids for Financial Success

We believe that financial education starts young, which is why we're dedicated to empowering kids to take charge of their finances from an early age. The Honey Huddle is designed to make learning about money fun and engaging for kids while equipping them with essential financial skills for life.

What is The Honey Huddle?

The Honey Huddle is our brand-new youth club for kids (ages 0-19) to learn more about the power of saving and smart money management. Kids can become a member of the credit union by starting their very own savings account with a minimum of just $5! Through The Honey Huddle, kids can access a variety of interactive activity pages to complete and earn Bee Badges as they progress.

The Perks:

  • Savings account, checking account, and debit card
  • All A's Paydays: Get paid for every A on your report card
  • Earn Bee Badges
  • Recieve an Activity Book*
  • Receive a Honey Huddle T-shirt*

Financial Success Starts Young

We're passionate about helping kids lay the foundation for financial success, and The Honey Huddle is just the beginning. By teaching kids the importance of saving and responsible money habits early on, we're setting them up for a lifetime of financial well-being.

All A's Paydays 

We want to invest in our Honey Huddle members. Each quarter our Honey Huddle members are encouraged to bring their report card into their local branch. For each "A" on their report card, we will deposit $1 into their account, up to $20 per year!
