The Parke County Promise makes educational savings a reality by helping families start a CollegeChoice 529 Direct Savings account through their school, seeding the account with an initial investment from a local or regional sponsor, and rallying the community to match deposits that families and champions contribute to the account. Registration is still open for Parke County students in grades K-3! Register your child online at https://www.promiseindiana.org/ .

The 2019 Fall Event will build upon our 2016 theme “Funding Our Towns Forever”. This year’s sponsorships will help raise money to revamp our 6 incorporated towns’ recreational areas. Projects may include new playground equipment, splash pads, ball courts, restrooms, beautification, etc.! Our goal is to raise $60,000 ($10K to each community for their project)! Every dollar of the $500 table sponsorship will be used to fund projects in Bloomingdale, Marshall, Mecca, Montezum
