Kids Rise – Save for College

Dear Kindergarten, Grade 1 and Grade 2 Families:

School is an academic milestone, one of the many in your child’s journey! We want to remind you that your child has funds available for their educational future through the Save for College Program.

Your child’s NYC Scholarship Account has an initial allocation of $100, unless your family chooses not to participate by “opting-out.” 

You can increase these funds with an additional $25 reward for activating and viewing their account. You can view a step-by-step guide and a video to learn how to activate your child’s account, known as Building Block 1: https://nyckidsrise.org/get-started/activate-account/

You can view the Introductory VideoProgram Basics, and Program FAQ for more information.

Once you activate your account, you can log in regularly and see how the balance changes over time. Take this important step so that we can all work together to save for your child’s future!

Please don’t hesitate to contact me at 1-347-563-4680 or via email at BLin9@schools.nyc.gov if you need support. I wish you all a wonderful school year ahead!

In partnership,

Ms. Bing Xing Lin
