2022 Designation of Savings Excellence Recipients

This award is made annually to those financial institutions that go above and beyond to actively encourage members to save, increase savings, save automatically, and build wealth. Financial institutions play a pivotal role in motivating and providing a safe and appropriate opportunity to save. Your actions during America Saves Week and beyond provide a positive example of what financial institutions can do to support their customers in building emergency savings and a measure of financial stability.

The commitment and dedication of the 13 DOSE award winners were a significant portion of the collective economic impact of this year’s celebration, which took place this past February 21st - 25th. Overall the participating organizations encouraged nearly 415,000 individuals to set up a new savings account or deposit into an existing savings account, depositing a total of $1,134,122,355.56 during a one-week timeframe. Additionally, just over 200,000 individuals either set up automatic savings or increased the amount they save automatically.
