Gifting & Rewards Programs

The gift that never gets outgrown, broken or forgotten.

So many gifts end up being played with for a day and then forgotten. The UGift program makes it easy for friends and family to give a gift that can make a lasting difference in your loved one's life. A contribution of as little as $25 can significantly lessen their debt load in the future. (Bonus: It gives you an easy to answer to all those, “What should I get her?” questions.)

Sure, a kid may not think the gift of education is the coolest thing to unwrap today. But they’ll think you’re super awesome when they unwrap their future achievements without as much debt!

Ugift is an easy, free-to-use service that lets family and friends contribute to your account with The Education Plan. Saving for that degree or certification can take a village, and Ugift makes it easy to get help from your network of loved ones. Instead of giving toys, cash or other typical gifts that are used too quickly or outgrown, gift givers get the satisfaction of knowing that their generosity can make a lasting difference. To learn more, visit ugift529.com.
