America Saves® motivates and encourages people, particularly the financially vulnerable, to save effectively in order to reduce debt and build wealth. Through America Saves’ network of more than 2,000 partnering organizations, we use social marketing and behavioral economics to help these organizations influence their constituents to adopt new attitudes and habits to strengthen their financial situations. Whether trying to save the first $500 of an emergency fund or contributing toward a more comfortable retirement, we provide support for savers to reach their goals.
America Saves encourages individuals to take the America Saves Pledge, which helps them create a simple savings plan that identifies their savings goal, a term within which they will save, and a monthly contribution they commit to save toward their goal. America Saves encourages organizations to promote saving year-round as well as during America Saves Week (see below for more details).
In addition, America Saves supports the unique financial needs of active duty military members through its Military Saves® program.
To date, America Saves and Military Saves have helped more than 600,000 individuals make a savings plan with the top three goals of building an emergency fund, saving for an education and saving for retirement.
