Join First Capital Advisors along with several organizations across the county as we participate in America Saves Week, February 21 – 28, 2010. The purpose of America Saves Week is to encourage, individuals and families to set savings goals and to improve their financial goals and financial education. Several organizations across the country will be participating and will be hosting various financial literacy programs. A full list of participants can be found on the America Saves website at www.americasavesweek.org.
The America Saves Week Website has some unique features to get participants started on their savings goals. Some of the unique features include:
- Short financial survey
- Listing of participating organizations and events
- Downloadable Financial literacy materials
- Savings messages
- America Saves Week Build Wealth Not Debt e-mails
- Access to the In Charge® Education Foundation Mind Your Finance program
This is a critical time for everyone to participate and become encouraged and empowered. Our nation is still struggling and unemployment is still very high. It is my hope that participants in the program will be enlightened and encouraged to save for the future.
