School Spotlight: Celebrating March and April with Our Community Partners!
March and April are busy months for our community partnerships! Both months provide great opportunities for Community Financial to assist with educational events at local schools and libraries within the community.

Community Financial has been actively supporting local libraries, school media centers, and classrooms for “March is Reading Month” for many years. This year, Education Partnership Coordinators have “zoomed” into classrooms to read some of their favorite books to students, as well as creating book read-aloud videos for teachers and media specialists alike. Prizes were also sponsored and given out to exceptional readers at Community Financial’s partnering schools. “March is Reading Month” was a fantastic month, full of reading fun for everyone involved.

April is “National Credit Union Youth Month!”

Additionally, Community Financial has dedicated a special page on its website for “Youth Month.” This page will update each week with a new lesson and activity for students to do at home. As a preview, students can learn about saving, fraud, taxes, and money features. Check out our youth month site at www.cfcu.org/youthmonth each week to watch our fun and engaging videos!
