Industry State Bank participated in the Credit for Life program put on by the Columbus Christian Women’s Organization at Columbus High School Feb. 5, and also helped with the same program at Rice High School on Feb. 12. This program al lowed high school seniors a trial run at the adult world, which they are about to truly experience after graduation in May. The students received a credit score and job salary and had to make various financial decisions. This ultimately led them to the Credit Counseling Center, where ISB was lending a hand, to see if they had been successful in their decision making process.
