[House] 🎓 A HUGE boost for K2C and College Savings Accounts

[San Francisco Kindergarten to College]

A HUGE boost for K2C and College Savings Accounts On Friday, Governor Newsom proposed an investment of more than $2 billion in a statewide college savings account modeled after our Kindergarten to College Program (K2C). In 2011 when he was Mayor, Gavin and I launched K2C based on research showing that children with savings accounts will be up to seven times more likely to attend college than those without an account. Today, as a result of Newsom’s vision back in 2011, 46,000 public school students in San Francisco have K2C accounts, and have $8.6 million saved for college. I am beyond thrilled to see this program go statewide, and provide low income students with $500 to start saving for college.    We are eagerly awaiting more details about this new program, but wanted to share this exciting news with all of you.   K2C would not be possible without the support of this community, and I am so grateful to Governor Newsom that more children around the state will have the opportunity to go to college.
