America Saves Week

America Saves Week 2023
A Financially Confident You

America Saves Week is an annual celebration and call to action for Americans to commit to saving successfully. Financial confidence is the intersection of building a savings habit, knowing what resources you have available to support your financial stability, and taking advantage of those resources as needed.

Through the support of more than 1,700 organizations, the America Saves initiative encourages local communities, families and individuals to examine their finances and rethink their saving behaviors. It all begins with the America Saves Pledge, encouraging savers to set a goal, and plan to achieve better financial stability.

Celebrate America Saves Week February 27 to March 3. During this week, DISB shares with residents and employees of the District events, programs and resources to help them save, and promote financial resiliency.
