Nashville, TN – September is College Savings Month in Tennessee, and the TNStars College Savings Program is kicking it off with an incentive for Tennesseans to save for the future education of each special child in their lives.

Sept. 1 through Oct. 31, Tennesseans who open a new TNStars account and set up a monthly recurring contribution of $25 or more can get an extra $25 incentive from TNStars. Existing account owners who establish a new recurring contribution or increase their existing recurring contribution by at least $25, will receive an extra $25 in their TNStars account.

“We are excited to share an incentive for all Tennessee families,” said State Treasurer David H. Lillard, Jr. “Whether you are opening an account for the first time or have been saving for a while, you can benefit from this incentive. By encouraging families to start saving automatically, TNStars can help families meet their needs for the costs of future education.”

TNStars makes the $25 incentive easy for all Tennesseans to take advantage of. Here’s how it works:
