Celebrity Saver Jessica Sees a Bright Future For Her Kids Thanks to the CLB

Blog Posts

The future looks brighter for Jess and her three kids, now that she’s started their free RESPs and received their Canada Learning Bonds.

“I knew about Registered Education Savings Plans (RESPs) but the first thing I thought about was that you constantly have to put money towards them.” With the help of SmartSAVER and financial institution partner RBC Royal Bank, Jessica was able to start RESPs at no cost with no contributions required. “I can actually imagine my children doing something with that money now.”

Experiences like Jessica’s can inspire other families to start their children’s post-secondary savings. Share Jess’ success story and help more parents learn about the RESP and Canada Learning Bond opportunity!
