Coverdell Education Savings Account

The Coverdell Education Savings Account was created to help parents pay for a child's education at any level — from kindergarten through high school and beyond.

The Coverdell Education Savings Accounts (CESA) historically has been restricted to an annual contribution limit of $2,000. You do not get a tax deduction when you put the money into the account, but the tax-free earnings potential is tremendous, and the withdrawals are tax-free, too — as long as they are used for education. Consult a tax advisor for details.

Take a look at the earnings potential: If you contribute the maximum for a newborn child every year until the child is 18, and you earn an average investment rate of 6%, the account will grow to about $70,000.
