Alexander is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a teaching qualification at Winston-Salem Community College, and is one term away from graduating. He has worked as a shop assistant to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $3,850. The registrar has said Alexander can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Alexander has a 3.8 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 Alexander would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Alexander 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 $3,850 goes: • Final term tuition: $2,450 • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,250 • Exam and lab fees: $150 If you're reading this, thank you. - Sophie
