Upromise Celebrates its 10th Anniversary and is Giving Away $20,000

When I was a little girl I had always known that when I grew up that I wanted to work in the medical field since my grandmothers, aunts, grandfather and several other members of my family were either nurses, doctors or vets, so the medical field always interested me. When I told my family at age 15 that I was definitely going into the medical field I was very fortunate that they all supported my dream. Once I graduated high school my family pooled money together so that I could attend college and I did so mostly paying for it as I went so that when I graduated I wasn’t in debt with a slew of student loans. With that said, some people don’t have that luxury of families helping them obtain further education so I was very fortunate to have family support.

Upromise is celebrating their 10th Anniversary and they are giving away $20,000 to user’s who share a story on their dream wall on how a parent or mentor has helped a child to obtain their educational dreams. Upromise members have received more than $600 million in college savings through their reward program. You can check out their dream wall to read the submitted stories or to submit your own at www.upromisetodream.com and you can read the dream wall official rules to learn how to enter.
