Triple Boost Matched Savings Account for Napa Residents:
Cope Family Center has collaborated with EARN (Earned Asset Resource Network) to offer Triple Boost Matched Savings Account to help low-income children get the resources they need to succeed in high school and college and ultimately level the playing field.
Specially designed to reduce the education gap for low income students, TripleBoost Account members receive $3 for every $1saved for their child’s education. Savings can add up to $500 with $1,500 in match money, totaling $2,000 to invest in your child’s education. The child must be between the ages of 10 and 18 at the time you open an account.
The savings and match funds may be used for an array of educational expenses for middle school, high school or college education, such as:
• College or Vocational Tutoring
• Test prep courses
• Summer enrichment camps
• Academic enrichment classes (music, language, art, theatre lessons, etc.)
• Sports involvement
• School trips
• A personal computer
• College tuition & books
