Get Smart About Credit Day
American Bankers Association (ABA) Foundation’s Get Smart About Credit Program is a national, banker-driven financial knowledge campaign for teens and young adults.
How It Works: Bank participants use the Foundation’s turnkey resources to lead lessons for youth in their communities on financial topics, including:
- Banking careers
- Budgeting
- Credit scores
- Identity theft
- Paying for college
- …and more!
Participation also includes customizable communication tools to amplify bank community outreach efforts and promote the program. This industry-wide movement to expand the reach of financial education gives bankers FREE tools to equip young people both in and out of the classroom.
Get Smart About Credit Day is nationally celebrated the third Thursday of October, but bankers are encouraged to register and present at any point during the year.
Thank you to the following Virginia banks that have registered to participate in the 2024 program:
