Campinas
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an accounting degree at Campinas State College, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a barista to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $1,350. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a top-ten-percent average, and my faculty supervisor 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. The payment will go directly to the Campinas State College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $1,350 goes: • Exam and lab fees: $40 • Final term tuition: $700 • Outstanding tuition balance: $610 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Gabriel

Updates from Gabriel

  1. Wanted to say thank you properly. 58% funded and I made the first payment toward exam and lab fees.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($419 in total) I made the first payment toward outstanding tuition balance. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  3. Update from Campinas: I made the first payment toward final term tuition. We're at 13% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
