Metco offers three youth clubs based on the age of the member. All of the clubs encourage saving by offering promotions and incentives several times a year, and members receive a quarterly newsletter geared toward the saving and spending habits of their age group. LIL’ KIRBY ROO Our Lil’ Kirby Roo Club is tailored to the parents of members age 0-5. Lil’ Kirby Roo is here to help families plan for their kids’ financial future. Our Lil’ Kirby Roo program will provide parents of kids ages 5 and under with articles, news, and credit union programs that can help your family make wise decisions in those first few very pivotal years.

Youth Round-Up Savings – a special savings account that’s tied to a debit card to help them save for whatever they and you (their parent/guardian) decides is important. Prepaid Card – If they’re not quite ready for a checking account, a prepaid card loaded with their allowance may be a good start. They’ll learn how to manage their money while using a card, without any risk. At age 16, we recommend these additional financial services: First Car Loan – If you co-sign their first car loan, we’ll give them a rate based on your credit scores. However, the loan will work on building their credit score. Credit-Builder Loan – We help them build a positive credit history even if they don’t need the money. Here’s how it works: We give them a small loan at a very low interest rate. We set that money aside in a savings account (that cannot be withdrawn). They make consistent, on-time monthly payments toward the loan for at least 6 months. When their monthly principal payments equal the amount borrowed, we release the funds from the savings account and the money is theirs to save or spend!
