OnPoint president and CEO Rob Stuart said: “Financial education is an important part of who we are and we look forward to helping young people adopt healthy money management habits early on in their lives.
“We invite kids to join their parents at any OnPoint branch to open their new Savers Account and we’ll give them a piggy bank, show them how to use the coin machine and answer any questions they might have about saving.”
