Edward Jones is recognizing May 29 (5/29) as Save for Education Day, a firmwide holiday that’s name is derived from a popular education savings tool called a 529 Plan.
Corey Sylvester is hosting a “529 Day” meet and greet to help Cicero residents learn about education savings options from 2 to 5 p.m. at his branch office in Cicero. Children may attend and participants are encouraged to wear their favorite college apparel to get into the college spirit.
“At Edward Jones, we know that seven out of 10 families do not have 529 savings plans for their children’s future education expenses,* so we are hoping to build awareness of the many options families have to help pay for these expenses,” Sylvester said.
Sylvester’s office is located at 120 W. Jackson St. in Cicero.
