It’s America Saves Week 2026!
FNB is a proud participant in America Saves Week (ASW), 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. The 2026 theme for the campaign is “Own Your Financial Story: Small Steps, Big Impact,” and takes place April 6th-10th.
At FNB, we’re proud to say that we’ve helped customers just like you save money! In fact, we earned the America Saves Designation of Savings Excellence Award for our achievements during ASW in 2021, 2023, and 2024!
This week we’re encouraging our community to join us to get a clear view of your finances, set financial goals, and make a plan to achieve them. Below is a day-by-day guide to America Saves Week, designed to boost your financial confidence and help you discover new ways to reach your spending and savings goals. Let’s get started!
Monday, April 6 | Building a Strong Foundation

On Day One, we’re focusing on building a strong foundation. Every financial story starts somewhere. Maybe yours began with a paycheck, a big goal, or a simple dream for something better.
No matter where you are in your story, a strong financial foundation helps you build confidence—and stability—for whatever comes next. One of the easiest ways to build your foundation is by saving automatically. Set it and forget it! Even $5 or $10 a week adds up faster than you think.

Thursday, April 9 | Rewrite the Debt Narrative

Today is all about rewriting the debt narrative. Debt can feel heavy, like a chapter you’d rather skip, but it’s not the end of your story. It’s just one part of your journey toward financial confidence and freedom.
Every payment, no matter how small, is a win. Each step forward brings you closer to a new kind of freedom. The truth is, tackling debt isn’t about perfection. It’s about progress.
For today, we encourage you to start by taking inventory of your debts, listing balances, interest rates, and due dates. When you’re ready, choose a repayment method that fits your life—like the snowball or avalanche approach.
Today’s Resources:
- Rewrite the Debt Narrative: Turning Payments into Power
- The True Cost of Credit Card Debt (and How to Take Control)
- Buy Now, Pay Later: What You Need to Know Before You Click “Checkout”
- 5 Easy Steps to Tackle Your Debt While Saving

- Debt Repayment Tracker
You have the power to rewrite your financial story—one payment, one page at a time.
Friday, April 10 | Your Story, Your Future

Your financial future isn’t written; it’s created by the choices you make today. Every small, intentional step shapes the life you want tomorrow. That’s why today we’re focusing on your story and your future.
Maybe you’re dreaming of homeownership, planning for retirement, or starting your own business. Whatever your goal, the key is to start.
Take time today to set a clear goal and commit to one action that moves you closer—like increasing your automatic savings, contributing to a retirement plan, or mapping out a long-term vision for your money.
