VENNMEDIA WILL HOST TWITTER STORM AND 30 DAY SAVINGS CHALLENGE AS PART OF AMERICA SAVES WEEK

 

Promoting automatic savings to help people reach their savings goals

(Chicago) – As part of America Saves Week 2020, scheduled for February 24 – February 29, 2020, Vennmedia is spreading the message of saving successfully and urging its network to encourage people to make savings automatic.

“America Saves Week is a great opportunity to help people in our community to Set a Goal, Make a Plan, and Save Automatically,” said Zo Slater, Executive Director of Vennmedia.

To encourage people to save more successfully and encourage more people to save, Vennmedia is partnering with America Saves to offer our community a local campaign, Vennmedia Saves.

To encourage individuals and families to make savings automatic, Vennmedia Saves is offering a few free events as part of America Saves Week. Events include a 30 day Savings Challenge and a Twitter Storm. The 30-day Savings Challenge will involve participants saving at least $100 in 30 days by following a daily savings chart they receive upon registering for the event. Participants will also receive weekly emailed savings messages, updates on Vennmedia Saves events and a free eBook. The Twitter Storm part of the activities will be held on February 29, 2020 at 9am. Vennmedia will blast Twitter with #ASW20 content for an hour to raise the visibility of the Week and engage more individuals in the topic of saving.  

 “Vennmedia Saves helped me get my finances under control. Now I have enough money saved in case there’s an emergency down the line,” said local saver Thomas Hamlin of Chicago, IL.

Take financial action and take the Vennmedia Saves pledge.

 

Since 2007 America Saves Week, coordinated by America Saves and its partners, has been an annual celebration as well as a call to action for everyday Americans to commit to saving successfully. Through the support of thousands of participating organizations, together we encourage our local communities to do a ‘gut-check’ on their finances and saving behaviors. The America Saves pledge is the framework that allows savers to set a goal, and make a plan to achieve better financial stability.
