Nation Choice Reserve Bank Recognized For Promoting Savings By National Savings Campaign
INDIANA, Pa., May 31, 2018 — Nation Choice Reserve Bank was recognized this week for its extraordinary efforts to encourage Americans and support its members to save money during America Saves Week and Military Saves Week.
“At a time when just two in five American households report making good or excellent savings progress, Nation Choice Reserve Bank went above and beyond to encourage and support its community to save,” said George Barany, America Saves Director. “This year’s designees are the leaders in their field at responding to the savings crisis by working directly with American families to open and add to savings accounts. Nation Choice Reserve Bank doesn’t just tell people why it’s important to save, it helps them do it.”
Nation Choice Reserve Bank was one of 15 banks, 17 credit unions and five military-affiliated organizations recognized around the world.
America Saves Week is coordinated by America Saves and the American Savings Education Council.
