Big dreams shouldn’t depend on big inheritances.
College is more than lectures and exams; there are so many experiences and opportunities that can shape a student’s future.
Scholarships and loans cover college basics, tuition, textbooks, and dorms, but what about everything else? Who pays for the study abroad trip that changes a perspective? The materials for an extracurricular project that could shape a career path? The plane ticket that lets a parent see their child shine onstage in a college performance?
That’s when you need My Rich Aunt. We’re building an online fundraising platform that connects donors like you to verified college and graduate students who need help with the opportunities financial aid can’t reach.

Say Hello to MY RICH AUNT!
If a student,
Needs a winter coat? Ask MY RICH AUNT.
Has a laptop on the fritz? MY RICH AUNT to the rescue.
Can’t afford the deposit for a study abroad program — yep, MY RICH AUNT can help.
We connect students with generous donors - our honorary “aunties and uncles” - who provide financial boosts for the things traditional financial aid won’t cover.
Because all students deserve generous aunts/uncles who have their backs!
Students create personal fundraising pages
MY RICH AUNT verifies student enrollment status.
Aunties/uncles contribute to students’ pages or the general fund.
All donations through MY RICH AUNT are tax deductible.
