Dear parents and guardians,

It’s hard to believe: the end of the school year is here! Most fifth graders at your school have been in the Save for College Program since they were in kindergarten, and it has been amazing to watch them learn, grow and strive. Their accomplishments are an inspiration to us all.

Before summer break begins, I want to remind you that 5th grade is the last year you can receive rewards available for your fifth grader’s NYC Scholarship Account. Whether they choose to use the money for college or for career training in the future, it will be there to help them achieve their dreams!

Visit the NYC Kids RISE website to complete the 3 Building Blocks for an additional $75 and the full $100 Savings Match. If you need any assistance or have questions, please don’t hesitate to call our hotline at 833-543-7473 or email us at [email protected].

Best wishes for a wonderful summer,
Debra-Ellen Glickstein
Executive Director, NYC Kids RISE
