College Kids offers incentives to earn money in your child’s account, in addition to the $50 opening deposit by the City of St. Louis’ Treasurer’s Office. These incentives encourage you and your children to save for higher education.
Attendance: Students can earn up to $30 per school year. Parents must sign a waiver of consent to share information from the schools with the Treasurer’s Office to be eligible for this program. This form will be included in your welcome packet.
Steady Saver: Deposits up to the first $100 will be matched, dollar-for-dollar.
Financial Education: Parents and guardians are able to earn an additional $50 in contributions by completing financial education courses in-person, online through Wells Fargo Hands on Banking and through the College Kids smartphone app.
