ANNUAL SPECIAL OBSERVANCES
Financial Literacy Month
APRIL 1-30
In 2024, U.S. Congress passed a bill to recognize April as Financial Literacy Month. This was to raise public awareness about the importance of financial education in the United States. We observe this special observance through Tuesday Tips to increase your knowledge and skills to effectively manage your finances every day.
National Financial Awareness Day
AUGUST 14
Most of us like to wait until our birthday or the new year to plan our finances but National Financial Awareness Day is a great reminder to take investing and saving seriously to build financial stability and prepare for the future. We observe this day to develop, instill and reinforce good financial practices that will solidify your current financial status and serve you through retirement.
SEPTEMBER 6
Fight Procrastination Day
September 6th is Fight Procrastination Day. The Pumps & Pearls Financial Society will take this opportunity to help you face your “financial” procrastination issues head-on. We have all been victim of that powerful urge to push an important task to a further date. This observance aims at promoting efforts geared towards combating procrastination in all its forms—but we will specifically have targeted conversations around procrastination and how it is a major chokehold that is choking the life out of our financial well-being and security.
National Buy a Book Day
SEPTEMBER 7
This day is celebrated to raise awareness about the dying book-buying and book-reading culture. We commemorate this day by promoting the art of reading a book. Specifically, our Sis-STARS Circle will place emphasis on reading literature on finances, business, and investing through hosting book club socials to mingle, share, and enhancing our learning as a community.
SEPTEMBER 8
National 401k Day
National 401(k) Day, began in 1996 by the Profit Sharing/401(k) Council of America (PSCA), known today as the Plan Sponsor Council of America. The Friday following Labor Day was chosen so employees can start the week with Labor Day and end the week with Retirement. Pumps and Pearls Financial Society, observe this day by encouraging you to check in on your nest egg and promotes retirement savings education.
Women’s Empowerment Month was founded to support the movement that raises awareness about issues related to Women’s Education, Health, Safety, and Opportunities. Women RISE is our nonprofit organization that supports bringing about positive change for Women. We celebrate this special observance month by paying it forward by providing “free” basic money management education to minority women in underserved communities who may not otherwise have access to these types of educational services. Our vision is the financial empowerment of women of color around the world.
Women’s Empowerment Month
JANUARY 1-31
Women’s History Month
MARCH 1-31
Women’s History Month celebrates the often-overlooked contributions of women in history, society, and culture. It has been annually observed in the United States, every March since 1987. During this time, the Pumps & Pearls Financial Society will give extra attention to all of the amazing accomplishments of strong and determined women by highlighting women of color (past and present) who have made significant strides in business, and with their financial resources by amassing significant wealth that will last for generations to come.
