Breaking Down Barriers with Attainable
Three important changes have been made to Attainable: the elimination of the previously required $50 minimum balance to open an Attainable account, the cancellation of the $30 annual account fee, and the removal of the wire transfer fee for moving funds out of an Attainable account

Effective immediately, three important changes have been made to Attainable:
- The elimination of the previously required $50 minimum balance to open an Attainable account
- The cancellation of the $30 annual account fee
- The removal of the wire transfer fee for moving funds out of an Attainable account
Our goal in making the changes above is simple: to eliminate financial barriers for individuals with disabilities and their families to benefit from this valuable savings opportunity. There’s no reason that every qualified individual who wants an Attainable account should not have one.
Attainable accounts are powerful. The average balance for an Attainable account is higher than that of any other similar program in the country, which demonstrates that participants are saving often and significantly. And now, even more individuals will benefit from the opportunity to secure their own financial freedom. MEFA’s mission has always been to support the independence, growth, and success of the families we serve. We hope, with these changes, we’re continuing to do just that.
