A program for young adults ready to take responsibility for their financial future

If you're between the ages of 13-17, you can open an account at Century and be the primary owner, with a parent as a joint owner. At age 18, a parent does not need to be on the account. Either way, you can enjoy some special perks at the credit union.

Earn money for saving money

For each $5.00 deposit you make into your account¹, you'll earn a stamp on a rewards card given to you at account opening. Each new stamp is worth one dollar. Once your card is full of 25 stamps, we'll electronically deposit $25.00 into your account to help your savings grow faster!

No other local financial institution offers this benefit.

Members as young as 13 are eligible for a scholarship

To demonstrate our commitment to suppporting the educational aspirations of our young members, we annually award up to four high school/college scholarships and a total of $3,000.

• Louis Kovarik scholarship (ages 13-15) - First-place winner receives $1,000; runner-up receives $500².
• William Pauly scholarship (for members ages 16-18) - First-place winner receives $1,000; runner-up, $500.²

Scholarships are based on academic achievements, extracuricular activities, community involvement and a written essay.

No other local financial institution offers high school scholarships.
