K2C Students made 26,602 individual deposits into their K2C accounts last school year, July 2018 to June 2019. Way to go savers!! Ask a Student! Anyone can encourage a child's aspirations. We’ll provide a suggested question each month that you can ask students you know! This Month's Question: What do you want to learn after high school? Question of the Month Who Can Make a Contribution into my Child's K2C Account? Everyone can deposit into your student's account! You can share your student's account and routing numbers with neighbors, family, and friends for them to help your child’s account grow. And because your student's account is deposit only until used for post-secondary education, it is a great safe way for friends and family to support your child's future.
