A bank account that earns dividends to help you save

 

“Someone’s sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.”
-Warren Buffett

We’ve never encountered a member who regretted having saved, but we’ve met many remorseful they did not. When you save you give yourself the financial liberty to seize life’s big moments when they come your way. It may be a down payment on your new house, tuition to put your kids through college or just the peace of mind knowing that everything will be ok through life’s storms. Whatever the case, our caring staff and competitive dividend rates will help you plant the seeds of your financial future.

A savings account is a stepping stone in your financial journey. It can be different things to many people such as a rainy day fund, a vacation fund, or maybe your future home down payment. Whatever you are saving for let HFS keep your money safe until  you need it.
