The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has been raging on American shores for several months, but scammers are still finding new ways to exploit the panic, fear and uncertainty surrounding the virus to con people out of their money.

The stimulus checks promised in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act are starting to land in checking accounts and mailboxes around the country. The $1,200 granted to most adults is a welcome relief during these financially trying times.

School Spotlight: Hillman High School Students Learn about Budgeting
While Community Financial can’t be in the schools right now due to stay-at-home measures put in place throughout the state, we are grateful to look back on the financial education our school partnerships have provided throughout the year.
Community Financial’s school partnerships provide financial education to many students in Northern Michigan. Our school partners include: Gaylord Intermediate School, Lewiston Elementary, and Hillman Elementary School. Hillman High School has enlisted Community Financial’s help with providing financial education to their students as well. Hillman High School’s eleventh and twelfth grade students last year participated in a Community Financial sponsored “Reality Fair,” where students were asked to navigate the world of finances as adults!
