Upromise Money for College

Comment now » // July 7th, 2007

As homeschoolers, we are living and learning on a reduced income. Like all homeschoolers, we worry about the future cost of college for our children. Last year we joined Upromise for free, and with their program we are now EARNING money towards college just by spending money on groceries, clothing, and other necessities. Upromise is a unique program that allows families to save and earn money for college without changing daily spending habits. (Okay — we are also going the traditional “savings account” too — but Upromise is a FREE resource that helps us grow our money toward our goal of post-secondary education for our children.)

Upromise’s mission is to help families realize the dream of college. The Upromise Services division includes their popular Rewards Service, which allows families to automatically save money for college while making everyday purchases at more than 20,000 grocery and drug stores, 14,000 gas stations, 8,000 restaurants, thousands of retail stores and more than 350 online shopping sites. Upromise’s partners include Citi, ExxonMobil Corporation, McDonald’s, JCPenney.com, LandsEnd.com, Sears.com, and hundreds of others. More than seven million parents, grandparents, and family friends have joined Upromise – and their partner contributions today represent the largest private source of college aid in America. Upromise also makes it easy for families to invest in tax-advantaged college savings plans and to use contribution to pay off student loans. The 529 college savings plans are offered through Upromise Investments, Inc (member NASD/SIPC).
