Shaping the future of financial health—together

Mission and Vision

For over two decades, SaverLife has stood by its mission to transform the future of financial health.

Every day across the United States, people are forced to make impossible choices—because the systems around them leave little room for anything else. A parent decides whether to buy groceries or fix the car that gets them to work and school. A student weighs paying for textbooks, food, or rent. A family debates whether they can afford a doctor’s visit, fearing the medical bills that may follow. These aren’t just financial decisions—they’re human decisions about survival, dignity, and hope.

Our 720,000+ members aren’t statistics or market segments. They are people navigating these systemic barriers every day. They are us—our friends, our families, our communities. That’s why we’re here: to stand with them, to challenge the systems that hold them back, and to make sure every person has the opportunity to build a better financial future.

We take a holistic approach to improving financial health

We combine Member voice, behavioral insights, and real-time transaction data to build a deep, people-centered understanding of financial health. Through surveys, rapid-response polls, innovation tests, and analysis of actual financial behavior, we uncover how our Members meet basic needs, save, manage debt, and navigate systemic challenges. By centering our research in the lived experiences of our Members, we generate insights that inform our organizational strategy, strengthen the financial health field, and drive more targeted, equitable, and effective solutions.

We use insights from our research to shape national conversations about financial health, ensuring our Members’ voices and experiences are heard by those shaping financial systems and policy. Through storytelling, policy briefings, media, and public events, we help Members share their lived experiences with key decision-makers. Our Member Advocacy Panel deepens this work by guiding our vision and helping us imagine a more just and inclusive financial future.
