Can I contribute to a CalKIDS account?
To add to your child’s college savings, parents or caregivers can contribute to a new or existing ScholarShare 529 account. ScholarShare 529 accounts can be linked to a CalKIDS account so that all college savings can be viewed together. Remember, family contributions are not required to participate in CalKIDS but are encouraged to help increase the amount of savings a child has to pay for future educational expenses.
