May 8, 2017

 

On Saturday night, a fan asked hip-hop star Nicki Minaj to help pay his college tuition on Twitter, and just like that, the Nicki Minaj Scholarship Fund was born. 

When Minaj received the request, she was in the middle of promoting a contest for fans to get a chance to attend the Billboard Music Awards with her later this month. She then shifted her attention from the award show contest to a new contest that would provide financial assistance to straight-A college students.

As requested, students started sending Minaj their transcripts and bills for verification. For almost an hour, Minaj accepted financial requests that ranged from tuition for summer college programs.
