A first-generation student, Daniel needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of an electrical engineering diploma.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an electrical engineering diploma at the São Paulo Institute of Technology, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a tutor to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $1,750.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.8 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.
Everything raised goes to the university's accounts office toward the outstanding balance and the final term's fees.
Where the $1,750 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $740
• Final term tuition: $860
• Exam and lab fees: $30
• Textbooks and materials: $120
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Good luck, Daniel. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Take care.
hope things get better soon. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
praying for you, Daniel. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Good luck. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Nottingham.
