College Corner - A new service to help parents raise college funds!

  

Introducing College Registry: New Service Helps Parents Raise Funds for College Education!

It's no secret - raising a child/children is a hefty investment. A recent report by the Department of Agriculture showed that the cost of raising a child is estimated at $234,900. And college costs aren’t included in that figure!



If your heart is pounding because you're a new parent or already raising a few rug rats- it might be time to stop buying toys that will gather dust in the closet and start looking at gifts as a way to invest in their future.
FiPath, an independent site providing financial education for consumers, has launched College Registry™, a unique, new service that helps parents achieve college savings goals with help from friends and family.
