  The best time to learn to be financially responsible is before you have the need to. That’s why we offer special youth accounts to get kids in the habit of saving as soon as they get that first piggy bank. We have accounts just for teens too, so they can learn the basics of how to use credit and how to spend wisely while saving up for the things they really want. Our Youth accounts have low minimum balances, competitive dividends and a little something extra—fun!
 
  Custodian Accounts for Kids
   
  When you’re ready to start saving for your child’s future, PortAlliance can help.We offer Custodian Accounts which are Virginia Uniform Transfer to Minor Act Accounts (VUTMA) held for the benefit of a minor. Custodian Accounts require an adult to sign as “custodian” on the account. The minor is not able to make transactions on this account. Custodian Accounts have a minimum balance of $5, and earn dividends. To make financial education more exciting for kids, we offer 2 different clubs for our young members with Custodian Accounts:
   
 
 Kirby Kangaroo® Kids Club (Ages 0 to 12)
 
 CU Succeed® Teens Club (Ages 13 to 17)
   

Kids under 13 can learn about the credit union with the help of the Kirby Kangaroo Club. Kids will also enjoy these extra benefits:

  • A goodie bag when they sign up for a new Custodian Account
  • Kirby Kangaroo Club newsletters mailed to them throughout the year
  • A special greeting on their birthday
  • Opportunity to join in special events and contests at the credit union
  • Access to a special website with games, stories and other fun activities

Now that they’re a little older, we understand that they’ll be ready to move on to bigger and better things. That's why we're very excited to introduce our new teen club: CU Succeed™ - Teens Financial Network!

The CU Succeed™ teen club features a super-cool interactive website to help teens learn about money and credit. You'll even find information on choosing a college to attend, getting help paying for education, finding a great job, planning for a career, and links to other great websites just for teens!
