DES MOINES – State Treasurer Roby Smith is celebrating Keegan G. as the Tama County winner of a $529 contribution to an ISave 529 account through the statewide summer giveaway. With another giveaway now underway, Treasurer Smith is encouraging families to enter for their own chance to jump-start their education savings.

“This summer, we set out to give a child in every one of Iowa’s 99 counties a boost toward their future,” Smith said. “I’m excited to congratulate Keegan and their family on representing Tama County. Whether these funds are someday used for college, an apprenticeship or another eligible education expense, that $529 will be useful for Keegan’s future.”

The summer giveaway awarded a $529 ISave 529 contribution to one child in each of Iowa’s 99 counties. An additional statewide winner received a $1,000 contribution.

“The College Savings Iowa plan assisted our kids with college expenses years ago, and now the ISave 529 plans are growing for our grandkids’ future as well,” said Deb Osborn, who entered Keegan in the summer giveaway.

The summer giveaway may be over, but Iowans have another opportunity to win. In celebration of College Savings Month, State Treasurer Smith is giving away one $1,000 ISave 529 contribution in September.

“Seeing families like Keegan’s get excited about saving is exactly why we keep these giveaways going,” Smith said. “If you entered this summer and didn’t win, enter again. If you’ve never thought about saving for education before, now is a great time to start. Another $1,000 is up for grabs, and it could be going toward a child in Tama County.”
