Everence partners with Greenlight to enhance youth financial skills.

Everence Federal Credit Union (EFCU) is pleased to announce it has been awarded a $10,000 grant from the CrossState Credit Union Foundation to enhance financial wellness for families through its new partnership with Greenlight, an innovative app that provides an all-in-one money management tool designed for parents and their children.

The Greenlight app empowers parents to teach their children essential money management skills, such as budgeting, saving, giving, and responsible spending, setting the stage for lifelong financial health. EFCU launched their Greenlight partnership on Oct. 8, 2024. EFCU members are eligible for the Greenlight SELECT plan at no cost when they connect their EFCU personal checking account as the Greenlight funding source for the entirety of the promotion.

The grant, which supports financial wellness education, will help EFCU promote Greenlight’s app to its members, particularly those with Youth Savings Accounts.

“This partnership is funded by a grant from the CrossState Credit Union Foundation, and we’re so excited to provide Greenlight for our members as a way to help families nurture healthy financial habits,” said Kristen Heisey, President and CEO at EFCU. “Through this partnership with Greenlight, we aim to make financial wellness fun and engaging for both parents and children, fostering a generation of financially savvy young adults. This partnership aligns perfectly with our mission to integrate faith and values into financial decisions, and the Greenlight app will help parents equip their children with tools that reflect that.”
