RESPs

A Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP) is a government-approved plan that helps you save for your child's education costs. The government will pay a grant of up to 20% of the subscriber’s (usually a parent or a grandparent) contribution. With the increasingly high cost of post-secondary education, an RESP is a great way to ensure you are ready when your kids are.
