A Savings Account That Grows with Your Child
The My Moolah Account is Indianhead Credit Union’s youth savings program for kids and teens from birth through age 17.
It helps families in Wisconsin teach children how to save money, manage their first checking account, and even prepare for a car loan or scholarship as they get older. It’s more than a savings account — it’s a full financial path for kids.
Ready to Open a Youth Account?
If you’re looking to open a savings account for your child or teen, Indianhead Credit Union makes it easy.
What you’ll need:
- A parent or legal guardian (must be present to open the account)
- Your child’s Social Security Number

- A $5 deposit to get started — and we’ll match it*
