Make it rain.

Being a student isn’t easy. From struggling to pay off tuition or basic necessities, we can admit that sometimes you could use some financial help. Luckily, IGNITE is running a contest from now until April 23rd and we are giving away $1000 a month to nine lucky students!

All you have to do is fill out our survey and you’ll be automatically entered—yes it’s THAT easy.

You have nothing to lose. The possibilities of how you’d like to spend your prize money are endless. Whether you’ll use it to help pay off your student loans, are in need of a clothing haul or would rather spend it on 200 Starbucks lattes—the choice is yours.
