Meet Alex Benda. Entrepreneur. In debt college student.

Alex is graduating from the University of Flint-Michigan this spring with $31,000 in student loan debt.

To help pay some of that loan bill, he’s decided to sell ad space on top of his graduation mortarboard.

Last week he launched his campaign via GoGetFunding.com. No donation is too small and every
donation gets rewarded. A $1 donation gets you a high-five from Alex should the two of you ever meet.
$10 gets you a hand written thank you note. A $300 donation gets you a 1″ square ad on his graduation cap.
If Alex can sell 100 1″ square ads, he’ll eliminate ALL of his student loan debt and be one glad grad.

As of 6pm on Wednesday, February 22 he has 32 backers and has raised 9% of his goal ($2,851.00).
So far, he’s sold four 1″ ads for his grad cap. Oh…and just so you know… you can put ANYTHING
YOU WANT on that 1″ ad on his graduation mortarboard. As long as it’s not sexual, offensive or crude.

All donations must be made by Friday, May 2 at 11:59pm. If you want to support Alex, click here.
