Benoît is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying an agriculture degree at Ottawa Polytechnic, and is one semester away from graduating. He has worked as a delivery rider to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $5,950. The registrar has said Benoît can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Benoît has a 3.9 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 Benoît would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Benoît 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 $5,950 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $2,900 • Final term tuition: $2,950 • Exam and lab fees: $100 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

      Rooting for you, Josiane. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 10 people at work. All the best

      • Thinking of you. This could happen to any of us. Take care!
