Apio's final semester of a degree in civil engineering in Naivasha
Apio is one semester away from finishing a degree in civil engineering but is blocked from enrolling by an unpaid balance of $450.

Apio is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a degree in civil engineering at Naivasha Polytechnic, and is one semester away from graduating. She has worked as a tutor to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $450.
The registrar has said Apio can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Apio has a top-ten-percent 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 Apio would lose her place and scholarship eligibility.
Apio isn't asking for a handout - She wants to finish what She 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 $450 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $160
• Final term tuition: $210
• Exam and lab fees: $55
• Textbooks and materials: $25
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

I hope things turn around soon. Greetings from Enugu.
Thinking of you and your family, Irene. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Thinking of Naivasha
it takes guts to ask. Well done. After 24 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Tema.
Hope things get better soon, Irene. Your post was clear and honest. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Makati.
Stay strong, Irene. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. All the best
Hang in there, Irene. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
