America Saves Week 2021 is February 22 - 26. America Saves motivates and encourages people to save money, reduce debt, and build wealth with a different theme or tool each day. This is a week you can access free resources and focus on your saving, spending, debt, and wealth building. With the pandemic, now is a great time to turbocharge your savings. Did you know that the national savings rate has actually increased during the COVID-19 pandemic? Many attribute this to people not going out for meals, shopping, and other activities, and with pocketing some of their stimulus money. Many though, are still struggling so resources such as America Saves Week and my pandemic financial survival guide are very useful tools.
I am providing a link to a free digital toolkit, America Saves Week 2021 Digital Toolkit, that you can access and share with friends and family. If you cannot access the toolkit online, email me and I’ll send you information. Here are the different daily themes (accessed via toolkit) for America Saves Week 2021:
Monday: Save Automatically
Tuesday: Save for the Unexpected
Wednesday: Save to Retire
Thursday: Save by Reducing Debt
Friday: Save as a Family
You can explore the America Saves Week website for more information and free resources. You can also download my The COVID-19 You Can Do It! Financial Survival Guide if you haven’t already done so. The guide contains tips for those just starting their journey, and those who are further along.
What will you save for? Small weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly amounts can add up faster than you realize. And remember, compound interest over time is a powerful tool. Get started today and your future self will thank you!
