America Saves Week (April 6-10, 2026) is an annual opportunity for individuals to assess their savings and take financial action. Each day of American Saves Week highlights a theme that offers ideas to increase your savings.
Daily Themes
Monday, April 6: Building a Strong Foundation
A strong foundation begins with a plan, knowing where you are and where you want to go. Saving money can help you meet your goals and reduce debt. Automating savings will help you to build that foundation.
Tuesday, April 7: Be Ready for the Unexpected
It happens to all of us, we are saving for something we are excited about and then an unexpected event occurs. Having an emergency fund to support unplanned expenses like a car breakdown, dental bill, or even a last-minute fun treat should be a top priority.
Wednesday, April 8: Dream Big, Plan with Purpose
Saving for big things like a home, retirement and education can seem overwhelming when trying to save for small things. Creating a plan with reasonable action steps can help you save for the milestone.
Thursday, April 9: Rewrite the Debt Narrative
Paying down debt is a way to save. Actively reducing your debt means you are saving on interest, avoiding late fees, and maintaining or increasing your credit score.
Friday, April 10: Create Your Financial Future
Do a financial check-in to get a clear picture of where your finances are, where you want them to be, and what steps you can take to improve your financial wellbeing.
