🎂 We’re turning 39! A lot has changed since 1987. The way we bank. The way we pay. The technology we use to manage our money. But 39 years later, one thing hasn’t changed: money can still get complicated.

On September 9, 1987, Take Charge America was officially incorporated. Since then, we’ve grown and evolved alongside the people we serve while remaining committed to helping people understand their finances, explore their options, and make informed decisions about what comes next.

Today, we’re celebrating the counselors, employees, partners, and supporters who have helped make that work possible and the people who have trusted us during important moments in their financial lives. We looked back at how much has changed since 1987, and what hasn’t.
