A perfect prize for parents
Article Abstract:
Contests offering Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP) scholarship have attracted the attention of more parents nowadays. This is because parents are more aware of the skyrocketing cost of post-secondary education. For instance, Toronto, Canada-based marketing company, Learn Direct Communications has successfully linked with a number of Canadian firms to launch consumer contests using Canadian Scholarship Trust Foundation's RESP plans as the major prize. They include Dare Foods, Alliance/Nelvana Little Bear video; Kimberly-Clark Huggies; and Hasbro Playskool toys.
