CalKIDS is California’s statewide children’s development account program launched in 2022 by the ScholarShare Investment Board, which also administers ScholarShare 529 – the state’s official college savings plan. Every child born in California on or after July 1, 2022, has a CalKIDS Scholarship ranging from $25 to $175 waiting in their name, while eligible public-school students receive $500 and up to $1,500 for college, vocational school, or career training. That is why I am hosting a webinar and partnering with the Child Care Coordinating Council (4Cs) of San Mateo County and the State Treasurer’s Office to help you check your child’s eligibility, claim an account, and learn more about the CalKIDS program. This webinar is your opportunity to start planning for your child’s future higher education and address your questions and concerns. Join us and together let’s help support our future students.
