Chandler
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a degree in civil engineering at Chandler State College, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a warehouse packer to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $4,650. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a distinction average, and my academic advisor has written in support of my application for a payment plan. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support my younger siblings. Without enrolling this term I'd lose my place and my scholarship eligibility. I'm not asking for a handout - I want to finish what I started and then 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 $4,650 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $2,550 • Final term tuition: $1,550 • Exam and lab fees: $290 • Textbooks and materials: $260 If you're reading this, thank you. - Anita

            Thinking of you and your family, Anita. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Put this on a community board in Jakarta this morning. Thinking of Chandler.

              Good luck. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Sacramento.

                  stay strong, Anita. I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
