DECAL partnership sweepstakes. Over the past eight years, we have
helped many children with their educational savings and assisted
their childcare facilities as well," said Georgia Student Finance

Georgia families and shared
resources and information to help them plan for their children's
and grandchildren's future."

Jacobs. "The Path2College 529 Plan enables families to save
money for their child's post-secondary education. This annual
sweepstakes awards funds to four lucky family families to begin or
add to their 529 Plan and rewards the families' child care
provider. I hope child care providers will spread the word about
