Savings to Plan Your Summer
Introduction
Budgeting for summer travel? No problem. Limited income during summer months? Here's your solution! The Summer Savers account is a smart and easy way to save for your summer vacation and earn dividends!
Build Your Summer Budget
Set up regular, automated deposits into this savings account for your summer budget. It's your plan, completely customizable to fit your goals for the season.
Plus, one of our nationally accredited Financial Wellness Officers can help to review your finances, determine your savings needs, and choose a plan that works for you.
Simple as 1, 2, 3!
Here's how it works.
- Determine the amount you want to save per pay period.
-
We’ll help you set up your savings through:
- Direct deposit from your payroll
- Transfer from another account
- Mail or in person deposits
…or however it’s most convenient for you!
- Your total Summer Savers balance automatically transfers to your primary savings on July 1st.
It’s that easy!
Your New Savings Plan
Customize a savings plan tailored to your specific needs.
Here are a few ideas, illustrating your potential savings after 44 weeks of regular deposits:
- $25 per week = $1,100 plus dividends
- $50 per week = $2,200 plus dividends
- $100 per week = $4,400 plus dividends
Consider saving 10% of your paychecks.
Let’s say 10% of your income is $500 per month. After ten months plus dividends, you’d have more than $5,000 in your Summer Savers!
Sounds like a healthy start to your summer vacation, right?
