Richmond, Va., May 23, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The cost of higher education is on the rise, and Invest529 is helping families across the country take the first step toward saving for their children’s future this month with its “Save $50, Get $50” offer.
To qualify for the “Save $50, Get $50” offer for yourself or a loved one, open a new Invest529 account by May 31, 2023, establish a recurring bank debit, and contribute $50 or more.
May 29 is recognized nationally as 529 Day, a chance to remind people of how important it is to plan for a loved one’s higher education costs and to raise awareness of the benefits 529 plans offer in helping individuals and families save.
“Putting a child through college is one of the largest financial stressors a family will ever face,” said Mary Morris, CEO of Virginia529, which administers Invest529. “But we’ve seen time and time again the relief families experience when they save early and save often. We hope that offering the $50 match will be a small step forward for families on their path to education savings success.”
