School Partnerships
Financial education is the keystone to strong, financially independent adults. Winona National Bank has developed partnerships with the Winona area schools to further the students’ financial educations.
Classroom Presentations
Our bank coworkers work together with teachers to create financial presentations for their classes. Some of these presentations include: How to use and balance checking accounts, credit reports, credit cards vs. loans, careers in banking, and savings. We would be happy to customize a presentation to fit the needs of your class.
To schedule a presentation, please call (507) 454-8800.
In-bank Tours
It has been a long tradition for area students to take a field trip to our downtown office. With our original “mammoth steel vault,” impressive architecture, and museum of African safari mounts, the bank has been a field trip favorite. We have recently developed “behind the scenes” tours for students which follows the life of a check from our teller station until it is visible to a customer on the Internet.
To discuss putting together a tour that will fit your classroom needs, please call (507) 454-8800.
Save for America Savings Program
Winona National partners with the national children’s savings program, Save for America, allowing the bank to go to area schools to encourage the “habit of saving” among elementary aged children. On a weekly basis, banking volunteers set up “the bank” at school and students make their deposits. Volunteers then bring the deposits to Winona National Bank to be entered in each student’s account.
For more information on this program, visit the Save for America website at www.saveforamerica.org.
