Read this summer and win money for college (through Aug. 16)

The Connecticut Higher Education Trust (CHET) is sponsoring “Reading Makes Cent$”, a summer reading program for children in grades K-8.  Any child who reads this summer is eligible to win a $250 CHET direct-sold 529 college savings account.  CHET is partnering with the Connecticut Library Consortium and Connecticut State Library to make reading a priority this summer.  Eight winners – one from each county in the state – will be chosen at random.

Parents and guardians can enter their child(ren) online at www.aboutchet.com/library or visit their local participating library.  Official promotion rules and regulations are also available at www.aboutchet.com/library.  No purchase necessary.

Learn more about CHET on Facebook at facebook.com/CHETcollegesavings or connect on Twitter @CHET529.
