The charity, initially launched in 2017, helps fans cover college expenses including tuition, books, and other educational costs. Minaj personally selects recipients and ensures funds are paid directly to educational institutions.
Her charitable initiative began after a spontaneous social media interaction where fans sought help with college expenses. In 2018, she formalized the process by inviting students to tweet their financial needs using the #StudentOfTheGame hashtag.
This revival coincides with Minaj's own decision to pursue higher education, though she hasn't yet revealed her chosen major. As a graduate of Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts in New York City, she has consistently advocated for the importance of education.
The announcement has energized her fanbase, known as the Barbz, who have witnessed firsthand how the charity has helped make higher education accessible to many who might otherwise struggle with financial barriers.
Through #StudentOfTheGame, Minaj continues to demonstrate her commitment to education while making a meaningful impact on students' lives, combining her roles as an artist, student, and philanthropist.
