Overview
President Trump's 'Trump Accounts' program provides a $1,000 deposit for American babies born 2023-2028, funded by the U.S. Treasury under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.
Michael and Susan Dell donated $6.25 billion to fund $250 investment accounts for up to 25 million American children, especially those ineligible for federal funds.
Dell's initiative targets children under 10 in areas with household incomes below $150,000, growing funds via low-cost stock index funds for those most in need.
Funds are inaccessible until age 18, converting to an IRA where half of the accumulated funds become available for the child's use.
Families can contribute up to $5,000 annually until age 18. Employer contributions up to $2,500 are tax-free, boosting long-term investment growth.
