Panther Saver
St. James Parish Credit Union is proud to offer the PANTHER SAVER program to the students of St. James School. Complete the application form and return to the credit union with your initial deposit. Beginning September 2024, St. James Parish Credit Union will have a representative at school to take students deposits. The representative will be at the school cafeteria (by the lunch line) at 7:45am, on the first and third Thursdays of the month.
Financial Education
Our philosophy is to nurture and encourage the lifelike skills of providing for the future by helping the students learn how to budget and save today.
Becoming a Participant
We encourage you and your child to take advantage of the savings program that the credit union offers. All that is necessary for your child to become a member of the St. James Parish Credit Union and to participate in the PANTHER SAVER program is for you to review the Disclosure and complete the Application Form and return it when your child makes their first deposit.
New members will be assigned an account number and a passbook will be provided to your child. This passbook should be used by your child to record deposits but does not have to be brought with them when they make a deposit at the credit union. We can provide your child with an initial supply of deposit tickets. We do recommend that you encourage your child to balance passbook entries with their statement as another learning experience.
Eligibility of Membership - We welcome the entire family!
It goes without saying that St. James Parish Credit Union is excited about having the opportunity to serve the savings needs of St. James students as they become members of the credit union with their first deposit. We invite all family members – aunts, uncles, parents, grandparents and siblings – to become members as well and to call us with personal, auto and home lending needs.
