America Saves Week 2022 is coming; are you ready to build financial resilience?

America Saves Week 2022 begins Monday, February 21 and runs through Friday, February 25. In 2022, the week’s purpose is to unite a variety of diverse networks to build financial resilience. It’s a great time to start your savings journey, check in on your financial wellness and make any needed adjustments.

Since 2007, the national campaign – co-sponsored by America Saves and the American Savings Education Council – has encouraged and helped individuals and families learn to save successfully, reduce debt, create better financial habits and more.

Each day of the week supports a unique theme:

“Participating in America Saves Week is another opportunity for us to share resources, information and workshops in support of the financial wellness pillar of Purdue’s Healthy Boiler Program,” said Candace Shaffer, senior director of benefits in Human Resources. “It’s about providing access and support to the Purdue community as we champion financial security for them and their families, now and long-term.”
