Elijah is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a pharmacy diploma at the Rockford Institute of Technology, and is one semester away from graduating. He has worked as a library assistant to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $5,800. The registrar has said Elijah can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Elijah has a top-ten-percent average, and a faculty supervisor has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Elijah would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Elijah 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 $5,800 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,900 • Final term tuition: $3,550 • Exam and lab fees: $210 • Textbooks and materials: $140 Every share and every dollar helps. - Delilah

      Hope things get better soon, Delilah. It takes guts to ask. Well done. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.

            Sending good thoughts. I hope things turn around soon. After 25 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
