Hailey is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a computer science degree at Manukau State College, and is one term 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 $2,000. The registrar has said Hailey can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Hailey has a top-ten-percent average, and a department head has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Hailey would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Hailey 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 Manukau State College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $2,000 goes: • Exam and lab fees: $145 • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,500 • Textbooks and materials: $355 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Sarah
