Y&F Regions

This is not the only Young & Free region in North America! Other 25-and-under crowds have the same questions and concerns about their financial lives as you do.

What is Young & Free?

Young & Free Alberta, powered by Servus Credit Union, is an ongoing effort to give the 17-to-25 crowd a voice, a head start and useful information

GIVING YOUNG PEOPLE A VOICE

We launched Young & Free because we felt strongly that young people were not being well served by other financial institutions. Young people in Alberta didn't have a voice when it came to getting what they needed financially. So we launched a search for a Spokester (spokesperson) and gave that person a platform: the Young & Free Alberta website.

Dex Dunford is our current Young & Free Alberta Spokester and his full-time job includes travelling to, attending and speaking at events throughout Alberta and posting daily blog entries and weekly video blogs on the Young & Free Alberta website. Dex is here to listen to you to get your thoughts and opinions about what you need from your financial institution.

The ultimate goal of Young & Free Alberta is to help Servus Credit Union connect with young people and to help us really understand how we can serve Alberta's 17 to 25 crowd better than any other financial institution.

GIVING YOUNG PEOPLE USEFUL INFORMATION

So many banking sites tell young people what they should be doing. At Servus we want to hear from you! Tell us what kind of products and services you want, and feel free to ask us questions and tell us your concerns. The Young & Free Alberta Spokester has a platform to answer those questions and concerns. Meanwhile, Servus Credit Union is always there in the background, listening and responding, making sure the products we offer match your real needs.

But your whole life isn't just about finding out how to avoid identity theft, or how to live on a budget now that you're living away from home. It's about living! And that's why it's also our Spokester's job to hunt down and share the fun things that matter to you. The typical financial institution won't waste space on cool stuff like that – so enjoy this website, your personal portal to everything that is Young & Free!
