Upromise Celbrates Its 10th Anniversary!

Upromise is celebrating its 10th Anniversary by giving away $20,000 to users who share a story that tells how a parent has supported a child’s dream! Upromise members have received more than $600 million in college savings through their rewards program, and it wants to celebrate all of the ways it has helped to fuel those sparks that made children into the people they are today and the adults they will become tomorrow.

Users can participate in the sweepstakes by submitting a story, and can vote on their favorite stories by “liking” them. Upromise will give away $1,000 to 10 winners and a grand prize winner for $10,000 will be selected from the participants as well.

I recently submitted a dream to the Dream Wall on the website. Here is what it said:

I have a 16-month-old son who is starting to be more and more independent. He likes to eat on his own, pick things up on his own, and walk without assistance. My dream is for my son to follow his own dreams and be whatever he wants to be. Too many times growing up I heard adults tell kids around me how they’ll never be able to be a doctor or a professional baseball player. I don’t want my son to ever feel like he is incapable of doing something he wants to do. My dream is for my son to be a dreamer himself and be what he wants to be.

Upromise invites you to join the movement, share your experiences and give a spark to help fuel the flame of their future dreams. I encourage you as well to click on the link to the dream wall and submit your own dream for the future. I myself would also love to hear your comments and your dreams for your children and the future. I also encourage you to share the program with others and so they can share their own dreams of the future. Follow the link below to share your dream!
