Grad Save Birthday Challenge!

October 12, 2012 By Debra Pearlstein 13 Comments


Did you know saving just $25/month when your child is a toddler can result in up to $10,000 when they’re ready for college?


Here’s a winning party-planning tip: Use GradSave as a smart alternative to birthday gifting. Just create a College Savings Registry for your child at GradSave then include the link on your party invitations, Facebook, etc. Once you reach $1,000 in College Savings Gifts, as many other parents have, we will pay $100 towards the cost of the birthday party!

Everybody wins. You kickstart your College Savings, No more unneeded gifts, your child gets College savings and finally, you get $100 to help pay for the birthday party.

    Please do this…. seriously. Or you’ll end up where we are paying $1k a month for my son’s college degree. Thankfully he’s gotten a job and is using it, but I wish we’d saved it.

    This is awesome! I had no money saved for college and I’ll be paying off my loans for a really long time–it’s such a good idea to start saving young!

    I’ve been meaning to start saving for my son- knowing it could grow to that amount with so little investment at a time is really inspiring!

    I have one in college now, and it costs a fortune! You can’t start saving too soon.

    I think this is great! I need to start doing something soon especially because I’ll have two in college at the same time!

    I signed up Emma throught GradSave, it was pretty easy to do and they helped me pick a great 529 plan when at the time I didn’t even know what a 529 was. I highly recommend it.
