Cramster.com Announces the Winner of its CollegeFest Contest
The site dedicated to helping students goes one step further at the annual Boston event
PASADENA, Calif., - Oct. 6, 2008 - One Boston Area student recently got the surprise of a lifetime, to the tune of $1,500.
Jameillah S. Newhouse, of Curry College in Massachusetts, was chosen at random as the winner of Cramster.com's Cash For College Giveaway. As the winner, she received $1,500 to be used for the various school expenses she encounters.
The contest was held at CollegeFest, a Boston event that attracts over 10,000 college-aged students each year. Cramster.com hosted a booth that served as the contest entry location.
"I was hesitant to enter at first because I rarely win prizes, but I decided to go for it," says Newhouse. "A few days later, I was informed that I had won the contest. Before I knew it, the check came!"
Newhouse is a junior at Curry College, where she is studying Psychology. She plans to use the money toward student loans and textbooks.
Winning the contest hasn't only helped Jameillah financially – it also introduced her to the many benefits of Cramster.com. "The website seems really helpful for students," says Newhouse, who seems intent on spreading the message. "If I were you, I'd check it out and sign up for Cramster.com!"
After its CollegeFest premier, Cramster.com hopes to bring the Cash for College Giveaway to similar events around the country, reaching as many students as possible.
"The Cash for College Giveaway helps students with their education-related finances," said President and Co-Founder Robert Angarita. "We're happy to provide that help. After all, Cramster.com was created to help students succeed."
