September is National College Savings Month, and Governor Mike Braun has highlighted the importance of saving for education with a Proclamation establishing September 2026 as College Savings Month in Indiana. To celebrate, one Hoosier family will win a $10,000 account deposit in the Indiana529 Education Sweepstakes.
To enter the Sweepstakes, individuals 18 years of age or older must complete the entry form available at MyIndiana529.com/sweepstakes by 11:59 p.m. Sept. 30, 2026. The winner will be randomly selected from all eligible entries to receive a $10,000 Indiana529 account deposit.

“Every Hoosier child deserves the opportunity to choose the education and career path that’s right for them,” Treasurer of State Daniel Elliott said. “A $10,000 Indiana529 account deposit supports their goals with less student loan debt.”
Indiana529 provides account owners and gift contributors flexibility when it comes to saving for education and career training after high school. Funds can be used at any eligible school or registered apprenticeship program, both in- and out-of-state. Accounts grow tax-deferred, and distributions are tax-free as long as the money is withdrawn to pay for qualified education expenses like tuition, books, computers, equipment, and credentialing expenses.
Indiana taxpayers may also be eligible for an annual state income tax credit of 20 percent of contributions to their Indiana529 accounts, worth up to $1,500 each year ($750 for married couples filing separately).
“The future will be here before you know it, and Indiana529 is here to help families plan for it,” said Marissa Rowe, executive director of the program. “$10,000 is a strong start towards that future education and career.”
