Christopher is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying an agriculture degree at Tacoma Community College, and is one term away from graduating. He has worked as a warehouse packer to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $5,850. The registrar has said Christopher can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Christopher has a top-ten-percent average, and a department head has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Christopher would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Christopher 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 $5,850 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $2,800 • Final term tuition: $2,550 • Exam and lab fees: $270 • Textbooks and materials: $230 I hope life is good to you. - Samuel

    wishing you peace, Samuel. Hope you get there. After 30 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.

    • Thinking of you, Samuel. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn.

      • you're not alone, Samuel. Shared this with my family. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. All the best

        • Sending love, Samuel. I hope things turn around soon. Greetings from Campinas.

          • Best of luck, Samuel. Hope you get there. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.

              Best of luck, Samuel. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Leeds so I could bring a meal. All the best
