National Get Smart About Credit Day - October 19, 2017

NATIONAL GET SMART ABOUT CREDIT DAY

National Get Smart About Credit Day is observed annually on the third Thursday in October. It is a national campaign where volunteer bankers help counsel young people on responsible credit habits.

The importance of sound financial management is something that can and should be taught at a young age and learning healthy credit habits while at the same time how to avoid bad credit habits can be one of the most valuable lessons as one grows into adulthood.
