Support Our WebSummit 2024, Lisbon Journey for Students

Donation protected
We’re Ashish and Vipashyana, the proud co-founders of Scholar Saver, a social-impact AI startup born out of a deep passion to transform how students manage their finances.

Here’s the heartbreaking truth:

  • 76% of students struggle with managing their money.
  • On average, they lose track of over 20% of their spending due to poor budgeting.
  • 9 out of 10 students consider dropping out because of financial pressure.

This isn’t just about numbers, it’s about lives being disrupted, dreams being delayed, and futures being compromised. We’ve seen it firsthand, and that’s why Scholar Saver isn’t just a band-aid solution. We’re creating lasting change by equipping students with the tools they need to develop healthy financial habits for life. Our AI-powered platform helps students save more, budget better, and make smarter financial choices, empowering them to thrive, not just survive.

Our mission is simple: change these numbers and help students build a future where money is a tool, not a burden. Our goal? To reach at least 100,000 students in the next year, giving them personalized financial insights, actionable strategies, and all the support they need to take control of their financial journey.

We’ve been selected to attend WebSummit 2024 in Lisbon, one of the world’s biggest stages for startups. It’s a golden opportunity to connect with investors, partners, and universities that can help us scale Scholar Saver’s mission and impact. But as passionate founders who have been bootstrapping this project and giving our all, we need your help to make this a reality.

We’re raising £2,000 to cover travel, accommodation, and participation costs for WebSummit. By supporting us, you’re not just getting us to Lisbon, you’re backing a movement that could save students thousands of pounds during their studies, improve financial literacy, and create lasting change in the way they manage money for years to come.

Our impact goals are bold, but we know they’re possible with your help:

  • Save students £1,200 per year through smarter budgeting and financial management.
  • Partner with 300+ universities worldwide to give students access to the financial tools they desperately need.
  • Engage 100,000+ students with workshops, online events, and personalized AI-powered financial coaching by the end of 2025.

Every donation, whether it’s £10, £50, or more, brings us one step closer to this vision. You’ll not only be supporting our journey to WebSummit, but you’ll also be changing lives by empowering students to take charge of their finances and build brighter, more secure futures.

Thank you for believing in us, and for standing with students everywhere. Together, we can make a difference.

The last day to secure tickets for WebSummit is October 20, 2024. Let's make this happen!
