May 17, 2017 - In advance of 529 College Savings Day on May 29th, ScholarShare will commemorate this national occasion with the launch of its special "Celebrate 529 Day” promotion.

That is why saving for future higher education expenses and utilizing 529 college savings plans, such as ScholarShare, helps to reduce the amount of money loved ones borrow while pursuing academic goals. Start saving now and “Celebrate 529 Day” between May 24th-26th with ScholarShare.
