With the economy still struggling and millions of Americans out of work due to the pandemic, wouldn’t it be nice if you could give back to your community when you spend?
Well, now you can.

Aspiration is a financial institution that supports charitable causes and regular people, rather than lobbyists and big corporations. It donates 10% of all its earnings to nonprofit organizations and makes it easy for you to support the things that you care about.
With a Spend & Save account from Aspiration, you can feel good about where your money goes –– and also earn up to 10% cash back when you spend.
Support worthy causes while you earn
As an added perk, you’ll get your own Aspiration debit card that will earn you cash back every time you shop at select stores, including Walmart, Target, and CVS.
Plus, Aspiration gives you the option to round up the purchases you make on your card to the nearest dollar, and they’ll use the spare change to plant a tree.
That’s right -- every time you shop, you’ll be planting a tree.
You’ll also earn up to 1.00% APY on any money that you set aside for the future, which is 14 times higher than the average savings account according to the FDIC.
