Suncoast Credit Union Student Run Branch
What is a Student Run Branch (SRB)?
The Suncoast Credit Union Student Run Branch program is a financial education partnership between Suncoast Credit Union and local schools. Branches operate once a week and encourage savings by collecting deposits. Participation in the Student Run Branch program gives students the opportunity to learn money management skills as they make account transactions at school, often coupled with additional financial education.
