Help me finish an agriculture degree at Heliopolis Community College - $700 to go
Karim has worked and saved for three years to study an agriculture degree; a $700 gap now stands between him and graduation.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an agriculture degree at Heliopolis Community College, and I'm two terms away from graduating. I have worked as a shop assistant to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $700.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a first-class average, and my faculty supervisor 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.
The payment will go directly to the Heliopolis Community College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $700 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $410
• Final term tuition: $220
• Exam and lab fees: $15
• Textbooks and materials: $55
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Looking forward to the next update. Sent it to 30 people at work. Greetings from Multan
wishing you peace, Karim. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Heliopolis
Rooting for you, Karim. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
So sorry you're going through this, Karim. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn
This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Bacolod this morning. Love from Bacolod
Good luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'm in social work myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
