Is higher education in your family’s future?  Join us for this virtual event, where you’ll learn about the aspirational and financial impacts of savings for students of all ages, as well as the program highlights of Maine’s Section 529 plan, a tool many families use to prepare for higher education expenses. You’ll also take home helpful tips and tricks for getting a jump-start on the scholarship search while your child is in middle school/early high school. Led by FAME College Savings Specialist Maire Pelletier, this one-hour virtual session will help you get a jump-start on planning for your child or grandchild’s higher education.
