America Saves Week, a national campaign encouraging savings and financial planning, is February 27 – March 4, 2017. The University of Wisconsin is a partner in the America Saves campaign and has many resources and events planned to help UW employees expand their financial knowledge and set new savings goals.
Take a look at the UW’s America Saves website which lists all of the resources and events planned throughout the state. In-person events include workshops on valuable financial wellness topics presented by the UW Credit Union, Summit Credit Union, TIAA, Fidelity, T. Rowe Price, Ameriprise, Lincoln, UW faculty members and Tax-Sheltered Annuity Program staff, as well as credit report consultations and individual counseling. The UW is committed to helping you plan, save, and build wealth, so you can fulfill your long-term goals.
