Caroline is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying an agriculture degree at the San Francisco Institute of Technology, and is one semester away from graduating. She has worked as a library assistant to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $1,950. The registrar has said Caroline can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Caroline has a 3.6 average, and a professor has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Caroline would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Caroline 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 the San Francisco Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $1,950 goes: • Final term tuition: $1,500 • Textbooks and materials: $185 • Exam and lab fees: $265 I hope life is good to you.

      Shared this with my family. After 11 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
