Audrey is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a degree in social work at Los Angeles State College, and is one semester away from graduating. She has worked as a barista to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $7,400. The registrar has said Audrey can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Audrey has a top-ten-percent average, and an academic advisor has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Audrey would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Audrey isn't asking for a handout - She wants to finish what She 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 $7,400 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $3,300 • Final term tuition: $3,700 • Exam and lab fees: $300 • Textbooks and materials: $100 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Avery
