A first-generation student, Gabriela needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a master's in public health.

Gabriela is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a master's in public health at Santos State College, and is two terms away from graduating. She has worked as a night-shift cleaner to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $1,650.
The registrar has said Gabriela can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Gabriela has a first-class 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 Gabriela would lose her place and scholarship eligibility.
Gabriela isn't asking for a handout - She wants to finish what She started and help the next student.
The payment will go directly to the Santos State College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $1,650 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $360
• Textbooks and materials: $75
• Final term tuition: $1,215

Wishing you peace, Letícia. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Gabriela
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. outstanding tuition balance is the biggest at $360. Thanks for looking so closely.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 28 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Buffalo.
hang in there, Letícia. It takes guts to ask. Well done. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best.
hang in there. This could happen to any of us. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Blessings.
Thinking of you and your family. Study hard! I'm in retail myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
