ABERDEEN, Md. -- The National Youth Involvement Board has singled out Aberdeen Proving Ground Federal Credit Union as No. 1 in Maryland for youth financial literacy efforts.
In 2007, the credit union delivered 226 financial presentations to over 4,500 students across Harford and Cecil counties.
Additionally, APGFCU ranked in the Top 10 of the total number of students reached and presentations delivered across the country.
According to the credit union, financial literacy education is one of the cornerstones that has allowed APGFCU to thrive in its first 70 years, and it will continue to bring long-term value to its members and communities, forming the foundation for its future.
The NYIB was created in 1972 to disseminate information and resources to young people in the credit union movement. APGFCU became a participating member of NYIB in 2000 and today is one of 1,000 active participants in the network.
