Claim Your Child's KickStart Account Before It Expires...

Dear Parent,

If your child was in Kindergarten from 2013 through the 2019-2020 school year, they received a FREE $50 College KickStart account as a gift from the Nevada Treasurer’s Office.

You must claim your child’s KickStart account before it expires at the end of their 4^th grade school year.

To claim your child’s account, please visit the KickStart website. If you don’t know their KickStart ID, you can email OpportunityAllianceNV@gmail.com or call (702) 546-9880 for assistance.

The only information that you need to claim the account is your child’s KickStart ID, the zip code that they lived at when in Kindergarten, and an email address to receive statements about the account and instructions on how to use the money after graduation.
