The committee used their creative energies to create a powerful coalition of participating organizations, offered feedback on the digital toolkit for the daily savings themes promoted during the Week, and pitched stories about saving to media outlets around the country.
“America Saves Week 2020 was truly a collaborative effort by these highly respected leaders,” George Barany, Director of America Saves, said.
