Updates from Jian
Small update. $4,059 so far, the plan for final term tuition is now scheduled.
Quick update: $2,084 raised so far (43%). we've started the first stage. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($1,705 in total) we've started the first stage. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

is there anything that isn't money that would help Jian?
Thank you. If you're in Buffalo I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks for looking so closely.
Thinking of you, Jian. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Jian.
It's all in the list in the story. outstanding tuition balance is the big one at $2,550, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Thanks, that means a lot.
Hang in there, Jian. Study hard! Blessings.
You're not alone. Hope you get there.
