Part of the stated three-part mission of NAPFA–the National Association of Personal Financial Advisors–is to "educate the public about the financial planning process." To help meet that goals, NAPFA advisors will provide free advice on college savings plans on August 12 and August 26 through a continuing partnership with Kiplinger's Personal Finance magazine. Through the Kiplinger Jump-Start Your College Savings Days program, callers can dial 888-919-2345 from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Eastern time and be connected with NAPFA advisors to discuss the options for saving for college. Earlier this year, Kiplinger's and NAPFA offered a similar call-in service that focused on retirement planning
