Ahmed has worked and saved for five years to study a degree in social work; a $500 gap now stands between him and graduation.

Ahmed is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a degree in social work at Durban University, and is one semester away from graduating. He has worked as a shop assistant to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $500.
The registrar has said Ahmed can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Ahmed has a distinction average, and an academic advisor has written in support.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Ahmed would lose his place and scholarship eligibility.
Ahmed isn't asking for a handout - He wants to finish what He started and help the next student.
Everything raised goes to the university's accounts office toward the outstanding balance and the final term's fees.
Where the $500 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $400
• Exam and lab fees: $50
• Textbooks and materials: $50
