ICMA-RC Thanks Employers for Participating in National Save for Retirement Week

November 1, 2006

ICMA-RC thanks every employer that participated in National Save for Retirement Week (Oct. 22-28), for all the hard work and effort put into creating and holding National Save for Retirement Week campaigns in your hometowns.

ICMA-RC’s mission is building retirement security. One of our goals is to encourage public sector employees to save more, by emphasizing that only through individual saving in defined contribution and supplemental savings plans will they build retirement security.

We believe National Save for Retirement Week provided a great boost in helping us reach that goal. It gave employers and plan providers across the country an enormously supported opportunity to show employees how very important it is to save for retirement. We wanted them to get the message and National Save for Retirement Week was a critical conduit for delivering it.

In order to make National Save for Retirement Week an even better success than it was this year, we need to hear from you. Let us know what you did to celebrate and how we can make National Save for Retirement Week even more successful in the future. Please send your responses to mstanges@icmarc.org, subject line, National Save for Retirement Week Campaigns - employer.
