Free financial literacy workshops
GPO is more than just another financial institution. We offer financial literacy programming aimed at making our community smarter when it comes to money management. Because GPO is a not-for-profit financial institution, we offer this programming at no cost to participants. We often partner with local school districts and colleges to promote financial well-being.
If you would like more information or are interested in scheduling any of these free programs, contact Courtney at (315) 737-2923 or email at cwalchusky@gpofcu.com.

FINANCIAL LITERACY
Oftentimes, students have no concept about financial goal-setting, money management or even keeping personal information secure. We offer a series of programs underwritten by the National Endowment for Financial Education (NEFE) that address each topic. We can customize the programs depending on time limitations and targeted student needs.

STUDENT BANKING
For years, we’ve partnered with many local school districts to teach the power of saving to youngsters. We custom-design programs depending on the school’s needs. For example, we work with the PTO to stage weekly banking days where students bring in deposits and not only get to see their dollars and cents add up, but they receive fun rewards along the way.

EDUCATION FUNDING
We offer workshops on funding higher education. Yes, GPO offers student loans, but we gear these seminars to options families may have – whether it be funding sources such as scholarships, Federal student lending programs, financial aid and alternatives. In addition, GPO student members are eligible to win credit union scholarships as well.
