Help Dennis finish a teaching qualification at Machakos University - $800 to go
A first-generation student, Dennis needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a teaching qualification.

Dennis is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a teaching qualification at Machakos University, and is two terms 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 $800.
The registrar has said Dennis can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Dennis 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 Dennis would lose his place and scholarship eligibility.
Dennis 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 $800 goes:
• Final term tuition: $480
• Outstanding tuition balance: $280
• Textbooks and materials: $40

Good luck with the exams, you've got this. I hope May is when things finally get easier.
So sorry you're going through this. Your post was clear and honest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Moscow.
best of luck, John. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless.
Rooting for you, John. This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Bangkok
You're not alone, John. Looking forward to the next update. God bless.
