Fort Worth Founder Aims to Help People Tackle Debt Through Content Creation
by Kevin Cummings | Apr 21, 2022
Demetrius Curry founded Fort Worth-based College Cash in 2019, giving users a way to pay off their student loan debt by creating content for brands. With a $50 minimum threshold to join a campaign, he says high school students can start the program and earn up to $25,000 by the time they graduate college.
