Financial Health Scores of Participants in the Red Tab Savers Program Shift Upward

Of the participants enrolled in the Red Tab Savers Program in 2020, we saw significant improvements in their Financial Health Score after participating in SaverLife.

What is the Financial Health Score? The Financial Health Network’s FinHealth Score® is a measurement framework that can be used to assess the financial health of individuals or groups of individuals over time. It measures debt, savings, spending, financial planning, and other other variables that contribute to one’s overall financial health.

Savings

At the end of the SaverLife program, participants were much more likely to have enough savings to last a month or more and were much more confident that they are on the right path to reach their long-term savings goals.

Credit & Debt

In addition to feeling more confident about their money in the bank, participants were nine times more likely to report manageable or no debt and much more likely to say their credit score is very good or excellent.
