Jewett City Savings Bank joins
America Saves Week
JEWETT CITY — Jewett City Savings Bank announced it taking part in America Saves Week, an annual national campaign that encourages and empowers individuals, families, employers, and communities to check-in on their finances. The campaign focuses on several important topics that make up your financial landscape with a realistic economic approach, including saving for emergencies and unexpected expenses, leveraging automatic savings, retirement, and reducing debt; as well as additional topics like talking to your family about money, understanding your employer’s financial well-being benefits, and the mental and emotional effects of financial stress. The 2024 theme for the campaign is “Saving for What Matters Most,” and takes place the week of April 8.
Jewett City Savings Bank will offer new savings accounts and waive the minimum balance service fee for six months, giving consumers time to achieve the minimum balance by saving just $8 per week. Those opening a new savings account for a minor will receive a free piggy bank. New accounts can be opened at any Jewett City Savings Bank location and online at JCSBank.com.
“With so many Americans feeling financial distress, this national conversation is timely and needed. We look forward to supporting our community in gaining better savings habits and getting key strategies that enhance their financial wellness journey,” said Michael Alberts, president and CEO of Jewett City Savings Bank.
