DASH for the STASH Winner

A Bellevue area woman won this year’s DASH for the STASH in Nebraska. Eighteen Nebraska libraries and other locations participated in the contest from March 15-May 15, 2016. Much like a scavenger hunt, players gather information about saving and investing by going to participating locations, reading investor education posters, and answering questions. The posters covered four key topics: finding financial advisers, avoiding fraud, understanding investment fees, and building a nest egg. The winner was randomly selected from those players who correctly answered the questions and awarded $1,000 to open or add to an Individual Retirement Account (IRA).
