DelCoAD: Delaware County Asset Development

Individual Development Accounts (IDAs)

Individual Development Accounts, or IDAs, are special savings accounts that allow people with modest means to save for the future.  Typically, someone enrolled in an IDA saves $10 a week toward any one of the following things:
Money is saved in special accounts for 1-2 years and at the end of the savings period, the money is matched, up to $2,000.  This means that you could save $2,000 of your own money and the IDA program will give you another $2,000! 

In Delaware County, two groups offer IDA programs (sometimes known as Family Savings Accounts).  Contact one of these organizations to learn more about their IDA programs and to see if you qualify.
