Give youth print and online newsletters!
Every quarter we send you enough ready-to-print pages to create three full
newsletters – one for elementary-school, middle-school, and high-school level readers. We provide
newsletters in high resolution for print, and low resolution for e-mail or online viewing.
These lively newsletter pages give your young members previews of stories, activities and comics for the coming three months. Use them to direct young readers to your credit union web site, so they can see what’s new in 5-Spot, AJ’s and C-Note.
IMPORTANT: You add your credit union logo and mailing information. You can print and distribute them, and also make them available as a link on your web site. Got that creative bug? Add your own stories, art, more pages, or customize in other ways - it’s up to you!
Here’s what you get:
- Complete newsletter pages (in high resolution PDF and JPEG formats) for elementary through high school students. The newsletters feature comics, activities and teasers about stories and games for the coming three months.
- All of those same newsletter pages in low-resolution PDF format for online and e-mail use.
Here’s how you get it:
