About America Saves Week 2023

Over the past few years, America Saves has been exploring what it means to be financially confident. As we’ve talked to both Savers and mission-aligned partners, we’ve been able to define the emerging phrase as this: 
 
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. 

You see, financial confidence goes beyond financial literacy, education, and the amount that’s in your bank account. Financial confidence is inclusive in that it recognizes that Savers have unique circumstances, and even if you are in a scenario that makes it difficult or impossible to save at this moment — you are committed to doing the work, taking control of your finances, and becoming more financially stable. 
 
As an organization, we are dedicated to helping build financial confidence because it is a place where we can support ALL people, including the most vulnerable among us. 
 
This America Saves Week we’ll join together and elevate a national conversation that encourages individuals to take control of their financial future. No matter where your community is on their financial journey, they’ll clearly see the steps they can take now that will inform and shore up their financial stability. 

As always, each day of America Saves Week will have its own theme that touches on five important areas of financial wellness; however, this year some of those themes have been broadened so that you, our participating organizations, can connect with the concepts in the way that best supports your community and the work you do. 
 
Together, thousands of organizations and institutions will amplify information, resources, and tools that will ensure we are prepared for the next emergency.

As a participating organization, you’ll receive access to the America Saves Week 2023 Digital Toolkit, invitations to exclusive webinars, and training in how to make the most of #ASW2023 and become eligible to earn the Designation of Savings Excellence or Savings Champions awards.
