Fresh Savings Program Update
Update on the AARP Foundation Fresh Savings and Fresh Savings Rx programs.
Fresh Savings and Fresh Savings Rx were the result of that 2015 grant. With the closing of the Foundation’s grant from the USDA in March 31, 2019, the Foundation ended its sponsorship of the Fresh Savings Program (including Fresh Savings Rx).
We are excited to announce Healthy Savings which launched in 2020. Healthy Savings powered by AARP Foundation is a healthy food savings program that costs only $4.99 but can help you save up to $200 every month through the end of the year!
It’s part of how AARP Foundation is working to improve the health and well-being of older adults, helping people save money and eat more nutritious foods at the same time. By using the Healthy Savings card or mobile app , you can save at stores where you already shop on many of the brands and products you already buy. The savings come on top of any discounts from store loyalty cards and manufacturers’ coupons (so long as coupons don’t add up to more than the price of the item).
Things like milk, whole-grain bread, lean meats, eggs, yogurt, and more are included every week, with a rotating selection of other products to provide variety for your diet. Every Sunday, new coupons are automatically loaded onto your card or app so you are ready for your trip to one of your local stores.
Unlike many other grocery discount programs, Healthy Savings powered by AARP Foundation is instant, effortless and healthy.
