I’ve debated whether or not to feature GoFundMe campaigns on this blog. On CashSherpa I feature a lot of crowdfunding campaigns specifically from Patreon and Kickstarter, but rarely GoFundMe. My goal with featuring these crowdfunding campaigns is to get the word out for new cool ideas, new tech, and to make a difference in someones life. That’s why I decided to feature this college students campaign.

The student goes to Full Sail University and wants to major in arts, where he creates digital artwork.

The Challenge

“The reason I need your funds is because my parents used me as an endorser for two of their coworkers without telling me, which they used to fund their two coworkers schooling knowing that I also use financial aid that I am trying to pay off which is just making my loan amount bigger and I am 19. Consequently, I pay the sum of $4,500 every month ($1,500 and $2,000) on the student loans for myself and the two coworkers.”

The Solution

“To clear pay off some of these debts, I had to sell off my MacBook pro, my digital tablet which I use to make my art on which is also a career for me, and a few other precious personal belongings.”

Of course selling these items wasn’t enough and that’s the reason for this GoFundMe campaign in the amount of $150,000.
