Centric Bank Recognizes Student Participants and Winners of Lights, Camera, Save! Video Competition for Pennsylvania High Schools
HARRISBURG, Pa., Feb. 27, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Centric Bank is recognizing high school participants and winners of the bank's second annual "Lights, Camera, Save!" video contest. Fifteen students showcased creative, digital, and storytelling talents in each of their videos on the importance of saving money. The students represented high schools from Centric Bank service areas in Bucks, Chester, Dauphin, and Montgomery counties.
The top three winners received cash prizes of $500, $250, and $100 respectively:
1. Sarah Camilleri, "Touchdown, Savings!," Spring-Ford High School, Montgomery County
2. Clayton Signore, "The Savings Account Song," Central Dauphin High School, Dauphin County
3. Jillian Heilig, "How to Save with Dave," Central Bucks High School, Bucks County
"Generation Z represents the second-largest generation in the U.S., as well as approximately 40% of the country's consumer purchasing power, and it's important for us to stay engaged with them," says Patricia (Patti) A. Husic, President and CEO of Centric Bank. "Waiting for them to enter the workforce is too late to help them make financial connections and understand the power of financial independence. With Lights, Camera, Save!, we're meeting them now on the channels that interest them, and that's primarily video. This is our second year of hosting Lights, Camera, Save! and each of the 15 videos had a savings message that was captivating and fun."
All participants received a gift bag including a mobile phone tripod for videography. Last year's winner, Taylor Brown, Central Dauphin High School, Dauphin County, went on to win third place in the national ABA Foundation's competition with her video titled "Cash Flow."
First place award winner Sarah Camilleri's video has been submitted to the ABA Foundation for a chance to win $5,000 towards her saving goal, plus a scholarship for a teacher at Spring-Ford High School to attend the annual Jump$tart National Educator Conference.
