Teach Children to Save

The ABA Education Foundation established Teach Children to Save Day to spotlight the importance of teaching our nation's youth about saving money. This event occurs every April when bankers make presentations to students in grades K-12 about budgeting, saving, recognizing needs and wants and how interest makes money grow.

Since the first TCTS nearly 50,000 bankers like you have made 60,189 presentations and reached nearly 2.3 million children and teens across the country, providing them with money skills they'll use throughout life. Do your part and help your community by visiting a classroom, church group or youth group and sharing savings lessons. 

Registration for Teach Children to Save Day is open!  Please sign up your bank's participation and be listed on the Official TCTS Honor Roll, updated weekly online.  After signing up, you'll have access to exclusive downloadable content.
