SIGN UP TO BE AN AMERICA SAVES WEEK 2025 PARTICIPATING ORGANIZATION!
Since 2007 America Saves Week has been an annual celebration as well as a call to action for everyday Americans to commit to saving successfully and reducing debt. Thousands of participating organizations join together to encourage our local communities to prioritize checking in on their mindset, finances, and saving behaviors during the week. Individuals are also encouraged to take the America Saves pledge in order to clearly establish their financial goals and get information, resources, and support as they work toward them.
??Who participates: Thousands of organizations participate, representing a diverse and impressive coalition of companies, nonprofits, educational institutions, military services, influencers, government agencies, and financial institutions.
??What we’ve achieved: During America Saves Week 2024, over 4,600 organizations reached over 3.9 Million Americans, supporting their individual commitments to save more successfully. Participating banks and credit unions reported that savers deposited over $353 Million as a direct result of their America Saves Week efforts.
??Why organizations should participate in America Saves Week: Organizations that participate in America Saves Week have a unique opportunity to be a part of a larger national conversation around building financial confidence and wellness, while simultaneously serving their community in a tangible way.
We recognize that Savers all have unique circumstances, and even if they are in a scenario that makes it difficult or impossible to save at this moment — they are committed to doing the work, taking control of their finances, and becoming more financially stable.
