Awka
Comfort is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a degree in civil engineering at Awka Polytechnic, and is one term 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 $800. The registrar has said Comfort can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Comfort has a first-class 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 Comfort would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Comfort 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 $800 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $390 • Textbooks and materials: $45 • Final term tuition: $365 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
