Youth Resources
From fun Youth Month activities to accounts designed for every stage, Columbine FCU is here to support your little bees as they learn, save, and soar.
Youth Month at Columbine
Check back in April 2026 to see what we’ll bee doing to celebrate Youth Month at Columbine FCU!
Fun, learning, and plenty of sweet surprises are on the way.
Bee Prepared
Whether your child is just a tiny bumbler or a high-flyer ready to leave the hive, our Youth Accounts help them stay prepared for whatever comes next.
Opening an account is simple. Start with a Primary Share Savings, then explore more as they grow. All minor accounts require a parent, grandparent, or legal guardian—who is already a Columbine FCU member—as a joint owner.
Help Their Savings Take Flight
Ready to give their savings a little more room to grow? The Youth Prime Certificate gives young savers a simple way to build their balance over time while earning a competitive rate tied to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate at the time the certificate is opened.
Unlike a traditional certificate, they can keep adding money throughout the term—making it easy to turn birthday money, allowance, first paychecks, or regular savings into something bigger.
Youth Prime Certificate Features:
- 12-month term
- Make additional deposits throughout the term
- Set up automatic transfers to keep savings growing
- Maximum balance of $1,500
- Competitive rate tied to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate at origination
- Automatically renews at maturity
It’s an easy way to help young members build a savings habit today—and see what sticking with it can do.
