About The Survey
Military Saves is excited to announce the opening of the 2021 Military Saves Saver Survey! The survey launches on May 17th, 2021 and closes on June 18, 2021.
The results will allow us to gain powerful insights and analyze trends related to the financial wellness of the military and veteran communities. In the 2019 Saver Survey, we learned that the biggest barrier (57%) the military and veteran community faced when it came to saving was unexpected expenses. This year we will focus attention on how the COVID19 pandemic has impacted the saving behavior of active duty service members, military spouses, and veterans. This information will not only improve our program but will help our supporting organizations better understand the realities and challenges the military community faces when it comes to finances.
The 2021 Military Saves Saver Survey is open to all military service members (active, guard, and reserve), spouses, veterans, and DoD employees. Each respondent is encouraged to complete the survey from their own unique perspective. As an example, military spouses should complete the survey as themselves, rather than on behalf of the service member, and vice-versa.
The anonymous survey will take approximately 5-7 minutes to complete. As a way of showing our appreciation, each respondent will be eligible to enter into our weekly drawing for a $500 cash prize.
For questions about the survey, contact info@militarysaves.org.
This survey was made possible by generous donations from USAA, The Association of Military Banks of America, and the Defense Credit Union Council.
