Youth

Desjardins has a long tradition of involvement with local youth. This is why Caisse Desjardins du Centre-est de Montréal is so enthusiastic about the concerted effort being made by all Desjardins components toward youth outreach.

The caisses are highly committed to promoting savings and financial education. Learn more about caisse youth programs and promotions on JeunesseD (site in French only) - External link. This link will open in a new window..
