FDIC-insured institutions are invited to apply and participate in the FDIC's Youth Savings Pilot Program.

The program seeks to identify and highlight promising approaches to offering financial education tied to the opening of safe, low-cost savings accounts for school-aged children.

The pilot program is open to institutions currently working with schools or nonprofit organizations that help students open savings accounts in conjunction with financial education programs. Phase two is expected to target new programs that begin during the 2015–16 school year.
