Iowa State Treasurer Michael Fitzgerald is touting the use of 5-2-9 plans, like College Savings Iowa, as a way for relatives to help save for their loved ones’ future higher education expenses. He says the plan offers a great way for students’ families to help them prepare for college.

 

While “5-2-9 College Savings Day” will be celebrated on May 29th, Fitzgerald is using the whole month to promote the program, encouraging people to head to the College Savings Iowa website to learn more.
