Individual Development Accounts



Individual Development Accounts (IDAs) are matched savings accounts that enable low-income American families to save money to build assets.  These accounts reward the monthly savings of working-poor families who are building towards purchasing an asset - purchasing their first home, paying for post-secondary education, or starting a small business.  Savings are matched $2 for every $1 saved.

Family Foundations IDA program includes education on budgeting, saving and one-on-one counseling.   Your money is matched to make it easier for you to save enough to buy an asset, such as a house or business.   While a paycheck will pay for food, clothing and monthly bills, an asset provides financial security for the future.  Family Foundations has received a grant from the federal government and contributions from local donors.
