The State of California has created a fantastic opportunity for families to jumpstart their children's college and career training savings with the CalKIDS program. Eligible students can receive up to $1,500 in free funds for future education expenses. Your child may already have an account set up in their name, and claiming it is simple!
Here’s what you need to know:
- Visit CalKIDS.org.
- Make sure to have the following information handy:
- Your child’s Statewide Student Identifier (SSID). If you don’t have this, contact your school for assistance.
- Your child’s date of birth.

Eligibility is based on the Local Control Funding Formula, and participants receive seed deposits and incentives to help cover future higher education expenses. For more information or to opt-out, visit CalKIDS Program Information.
