The Huron Valley Promise was created in 2009 by a group of area business, education, government and civic leaders dedicated to improving the future of all Huron Valley students and the Huron Valley community. It is a financial support system designed to initiate savings accounts to be used for post secondary education. It provides a one time grant toward the child's education. 

To be eligible, parents must have a child who is 6 years of age or younger entering the Huron Valley Schools District. The parents must open a 529 Michigan Education Savings Program account for their child with a $25 minimum deposit. Those that have applied will receive a $200 one time contribution from the Huron Valley Promise. (If the families have already started a 529 State Sponsored Savings Program they can receive a $100 grant). 

Huron Valley State Bank is pleased to announce the partnership with Country Oaks Elementary School for the “Bank at School” program.

We’re excited to announce that Huron Valley State Bank has “upped our game” on the web and is pleased to introduce you to our brand-new website. We’ve spent a good amount of time thinking about what our customers and the communities we serve want from a bank website. Below are a few of the key areas that we think are worth mentioning, but by all means feel free to spend some time looking around to find your favorite part.

Employees at Huron Valley State Bank donated items to fill large Thanksgiving baskets with all the fixings for four families in the community.  In early November, the bank kicked off its annual food drive collecting canned, non-perishable food items, fresh potatoes, and pumpkin pies at both of its branches and loan center. The Bank topped off each food basket by providing a voucher to purchase a turkey at The Village Butcher.  

The holidays are a time of good will and gift giving, but they are also an active season for fraud and identity theft.  One of the most common forms of identity theft is fraudsters stealing debit and credit card information. Unfortunately, many people do not even know they have been defrauded until they are called by their financial institutions, thus these scammers have a lot of time to get away with the act.
