Laconia Savings Bank Teaches Children to Save

New Hampshire – April 19, 2011 - Teach Children to Save is a nation wide program that partners banks with students to teach them lessons on the importance of saving. The presentations include games and activities about how interest makes money grow, how to create a spending plan and differentiating between needs and wants. Each lesson is aimed at enhancing young Americans’ financial literacy and money-management skills.

Laconia Savings Bank is actively participating and has taught savings lessons to 214 students in 2011. For the 15th anniversary of Teach Children to Save, the goal is to encourage bankers to reach 5 million students before the end of 2011.

Laconia Savings Bank, founded in 1831, provides deposit, lending and wealth management services to families and businesses throughout New Hampshire. With 19 community offices within the state and assets exceeding $1 billion, Laconia Savings Bank is the largest independent bank in New Hampshire. Because Laconia Savings Bank is a mutual organization, it doesn’t answer to stock holders and can focus on the success of its customers, communities and employees. Throughout its 180 year history, Laconia Savings Bank continues to be a strong and stable financial organization. For more information, call 1-800-832-0912 or visit www.laconiasavings.com.
