Teaching young people how to handle money is one of the best ways to build a strong town. The Bank of Lincoln County knows this well. As a local business, the bank works hard to give area kids the tools they need for a bright financial future.
Learning about money early helps children make good choices as they grow. To make this happen, the bank brings real lessons into local schools. Through its special School Bank Program, workers visit schools every week. Students from kindergarten through eighth grade can open savings accounts, make small deposits, and even win prizes for saving money. This turns a big lesson into something fun and rewarding.
For older kids, the learning goes even deeper. The bank opened the Falcon Branch inside Lincoln County High School. High school students run this full-service branch themselves during their lunch hours. They get to handle real tasks, like working an ATM and processing paperwork, while gaining real job skills. The bank also helps sponsor local events like “On My Own,” a fun simulation in which high school freshmen try to manage a household budget.
By investing in these simple, everyday programs, the bank is helping our youth learn how to save and invest. These lessons keep our local economy strong and set up the next generation for true success. Teaching kids the power of healthy financial habits is the ultimate investment in our community’s future.
