Youth Accounts

It's never too early to start learning the value of saving. At NW Plus CU, we believe in giving the next generation a strong foundation upon which to build.

We created three different savings accounts for members 18 and under to help encourage saving. Help your child learn how to build a brighter future and to be an independent adult by getting them started with one of these accounts today!

Take a look at the three different accounts we offer and decide what will work for you and your child. You'll be glad you did!

Scholarship Info

As an added bonus, when your child decides to attend either a community college, a university or a technical school, we offer scholarships for those heading off to college and those currently attending college.

The criteria includes that your child must be a member of the credit union for more than 90 days when applying. The application is looked at and a scholarship is given for community service, a short essay and for grades.
