How to Budget for Your Dream Wedding

• Open a separate savings account for example; a high-yield savings account
• Set up a sub-accounts or “buckets” within an existing savings account
• Use automated savings so you can set it and forget it

Reap the benefits:☑ Set a clear goal☑ Make a realistic plan☑ Stick to it

Now go enjoy your dream wedding!

💡 Financial Mythbuster!
“I shouldn’t apply for Federal Student Aid.”

🚫 Myth and an important one to bust!

The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®) is your gateway to federal, state, and college-based financial aid. Whether you’re planning to attend a 2-year college, 4-year university, or a career or trade school, FAFSA matters.

🎓 Who should complete the FAFSA®?
Every student regardless of income. Filling it out makes you eligible for a wide range of aid, including grants, scholarships, work-study opportunities, and student loans.

✨ Think you won’t qualify? Think again.
Most students receive some form of financial aid, and since FAFSA is free, there’s no downside to applying.

📌 Bottom line: If you’re planning for school, don’t skip FAFSA.

February is Black History Month. A perfect time to spotlight trailblazers who changed history. ✨

Meet Maggie Lena Walker, a financial pioneer and powerhouse. Born July 15, 1867, in Richmond, Virginia, she became the first African-American woman in the United States to found and serve as president of a bank.

After witnessing white-owned banks refuse deposits from Black organizations, Walker saw an opportunity to create change. Her solution? A bank by the community, for the community, empowering economic independence and opportunity.

Her vision still resonates today:
"Let us put our money together; let us use our money… and reap the benefit ourselves."

A legacy of leadership, resilience, and financial empowerment worth remembering and celebrating.

How an HSA can help cover higher cost of healthcare

A Health Savings Account (HSA) allows you to put money away and withdraw it tax free, as long as you use it for qualified medical expenses.
Let’s go over the benefits of an HSA

✅ Save for medical expenses: You set aside tax free money for health care costs, like deductibles, copayments, and coinsurance.

✅ Contribute based on your budget: You decide how much to contribute to your HSA based on your budget. There's no minimum amount. But there’s a yearly limit.

✅ Your contribution rolls over to the next year: The amount in your Health Savings Account rolls over year to year and can earn interest, putting more money in your account to cover your health care needs.

✅ No federal income tax: You aren’t taxed on money you put into it, or on the interest you earn. You also don’t pay tax on withdrawals for qualified medical expenses.

✅ No expiration date on funds: Your Health Savings Account contributions don’t expire. The money stays in the Health Savings Account until you use it.

✅ Possible use for spouse and dependents: You can use your Health Savings Account to pay for qualified medical expenses for your spouse and dependents, even if your Health Savings Account-eligible plan doesn’t cover them.

✅ Job change doesn’t affect your Health Savings Account: You can keep your Health Savings Account, even if you change employers or retire.

✅ Anyone can contribute to your Health Savings Account: Household members, friends, and employers.
