The funds in the Lansing SAVE accounts can be used for any post-secondary education opportunity such as college, trade school, vocational training, supplies, books or lab fees. In addition to savings accounts, the Lansing SAVE program will also provide financial education specialists to local area schools and provides students with valuable tools on saving for their financial future. The Lansing SAVE program offers students the foundation needed to learn about financial management and plan for their futures so they can achieve their goals and dreams.
