Frayne was just 1 month and 11 days old back in 1993 when his parents (both founding Board members of the Credit Union) opened a savings account in his name. His was our very first custodial savings account ever, and he still uses it to this day!

You can open an account in your child's name too -- it is never too early to start saving.
