I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a degree in civil engineering at the Girona Institute of Technology, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a night-shift cleaner to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $2,250.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.6 average, and my professor has written in support of my application for a payment plan.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support my younger siblings. Without enrolling this term I'd lose my place and my scholarship eligibility.
I'm not asking for a handout - I want to finish what I started and then 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 $2,250 goes:
• Textbooks and materials: $220
• Outstanding tuition balance: $1,850
• Exam and lab fees: $180
Thank you so much.

Updates from Francisco
Good news. Because of your gifts ($1,249 in total) the first invoice got paid this week. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
