Join CNN’s 1% savings challenge

It’s 2026, and the new year brings us fresh hope. We’re packing our gym bags, pledging to be more present with our loved ones, and working to secure our financial health.

In an uncertain economy, improving our personal finances is a good idea, albeit a difficult task. Shoring up some extra savings is a smart way to expect the unexpected.

That’s why CNN is excited to announce its 1% savings challenge that will kick off a bit later this year.
