Cleveland Fed Learning Center Visitors to Receive Free Piggy Banks to Highlight America Saves Week

On February 21-23, all visitors to the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland’s Learning Center and Money Museum will receive a free piggy bank and a copy of the Great Minds Think: A Kid’s Guide to Money activity book. The giveaways take place during America Saves Week -- a chance to highlight good savings behavior and also a chance for individuals to assess their own saving status.

"A visit to the Learning Center and the activity booklet are great ways to start family conversations about money,” says Jennifer Ransom, manager of the Learning Center. “And what better time to start saving your pennies than during America Saves week."

The Learning Center and its 30 interactive exhibits and displays is open year round, Monday through Thursday, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., except holidays. The Learning Center and Money Museum is located inside the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland, 1455 East Sixth Street, in downtown Cleveland. Admission is free!
