Parents invited to NextGen sign-up October 2 at YMCA
Dream big, plan ahead.
That's the slogan the Finance Authority of Maine (FAME) uses on the cover of its NextGen brochure outlining the many education grants available through its programs.
On Wednesday, Oct. 2 from 1 to 2:30 p.m. and again from 4 to 8 p.m. at the Boothbay Region YMCA, the local Set for Success program invites Boothbay region parents “to dream big and plan ahead” by signing up for available grant money.
For just $25, FAME will deposit an additional $200 into a NextGen account. Account owners or family members can then make contributions to the account by check or through automated funding options over time.
“We have received additional funding from several benefactors since our August back-to-school event so more people can take advantage of this program,” said Sue Burge, Set For Success organizer.
At the August event, the Southport Island Association contributed NextGen funding for 30 Southport students and several other local parents signed up during the event held in the YMCA Field House.
FAME representatives will on hand to explain the program. Students do not have to attend the sign-up event. The sign-up event will be held upstairs in the Community Room overlooking the YMCA pool.
