Manuel is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a master's in public health at the Medellín Institute of Technology, and is two terms away from graduating. He has worked as a barista to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $700. The registrar has said Manuel can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Manuel has a distinction 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 Manuel would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Manuel 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 $700 goes: • Textbooks and materials: $65 • Exam and lab fees: $50 • Outstanding tuition balance: $585 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

  • Hang in there, Silvia. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. God bless.

    • Sending good thoughts. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Medellín

      • Keep going, Silvia. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Jimma this morning. God bless.

        • Take care, Silvia. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless.
