The Partners in Education Visa card is available teachers, parents, and any individual who wants to contribute to the education of Utahs youth. USB A Associate Executive Director Richard Stowell said, The introduction of this program will give every Utahn the opportunity to contribute to providing public schools and students additional income to purchase computers, various supplies, and better facilities, with no direct charge to the cardholder. Stowell noted that the card allows consumers to conveniently buy what they would normally buy with their credit card groceries, gasoline, gifts, travel, etc. However, when using the Partners in Education card, one percent of each purchase amount goes to the public schools designated by the cardholder. Harris H. Simmons, Zions Bank president and chief executive officer, said The Partners in Education Visa card is a convenient tool for generating income for public schools throughout Utah and enables them to provide school children with the quality education they deserve. In addition to the satisfaction Partners Education in cardholders receive by contributing to school children, cardholders also receive a speof one percial rebate of one-hacent on all purchases made with the USBA card. The rebate is automatically deposited into the customers account at the end of lf the year. Additional benefits of the Partners in Education Visa card include: no annual fee as long as the card is used at least once a year; low annual percentage rate; y grace period; access to ATM's worldwide; auto rental insurance at no extra cost; and travel and accidental death insurance up to $1 24-ho- ur tyctfa. 24 E.
