How one high schooler made $80K for college (without getting a job)
NEW YORK — High schoolers can now earn money for college — no job required.
Startup Raise.me developed a program that allows high school students to start banking college scholarship money.
What’s the catch?
The money is tied to students’ individual achievements. The better they do in school, the more engaged they are with their communities, the more money they earn from Raise.me’s college partners.
There are 76 colleges on Raise.me’s platform, including Penn State, UMass and Tulane. Raise.me cofounder Preston Silverman hopes to increase that to 100 colleges by the end of the year.
There are several Ohio colleges on the list including University of Dayton, Ohio Wesleyan University and Denison University. New colleges are being added constantly, so click here to see when your college is added.
