Dollars for College

With as little as $500 saved, children are three times more likely to attend college and four times more likely to graduate.

Dollars for College aligns with United Way’s Aspire United 2030 goal to increase by 20% the number of young adults who earn a living wage, adding nearly $800 million in wages per year to our local economy.

North Texans with a post-secondary education are significantly more likely to make a living wage. High school graduates can use Dollars for College savings to pay for educational expenses to complete community college, vocational training or a four-year degree, which will equip them for good-paying jobs in growing industries with long-term career advancement.
