So I have an idea to start a program for students in debt with student loans, how can I start this?

So I’ve been thinking of a way I can help pay off my student loans and have been searching the internet for some kind of method but have come up with very little for means of a quick and easy solution. I was thinking about how many people have the same problem and can’t do anything about it. So I was thinking nobody invests time into doing something positive anymore, so why shouldn’t I try to do something. I was thinking that maybe I could somehow start a program to help pay off student debts, there would be limitations of course! I was thinking about maybe starting a website where people could donate money or even gift certificates so people can use their own money to pay the loans rather then gas or food. Now I know you are thinking well people will take advantage of this, which is why I said there would be strict regulations. For instance people would have to sign up and send a receipt of their student loan payment for that month, then a portion of the donations could be sent to them or to the loan office. I mean it would take alot of thinking and figuring out, but how does someone go about starting something like this without it seeming like a scam or without getting in trouble legally. I’m sure their are people out there that don’t have kids that would be willing to donate to such a cause. Do you think is is a crazy idea?
