Bank Bus Program Overview:

In an effort to encourage savings at a young age, Gather FCU Staff arrive on campus to collect students' deposits. Deposit envelopes are sent home with students prior to Bank Bus days with instructions for parents to assist their students in completing the age appropriate deposit forms. This is meant to be a fun, real-world learning experience for our keiki. We encourage parents to open a children's account for your student so they can participate in the program.
