Help Otávio finish an agriculture degree at Petrópolis University - $1,400 to go
A first-generation student, Otávio needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of an agriculture degree.
🇧🇷 Rio de Janeiro, Brazil1,373 views
Otávio is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying an agriculture degree at Petrópolis University, and is one semester away from graduating. He has worked as a night-shift cleaner to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $1,400.
The registrar has said Otávio can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Otávio has a 3.9 average, and a faculty supervisor has written in support.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Otávio would lose his place and scholarship eligibility.
Otávio isn't asking for a handout - He wants to finish what He started and help the next student.
The payment will go directly to the Petrópolis University bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $1,400 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $740
• Final term tuition: $610
• Exam and lab fees: $35
• Textbooks and materials: $15
Thank you so much.

Praying for you, Paulo. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. We're a small family in Leicester but we're thinking of you. Love from Leicester
thanks for sharing this. Hope you get there. Greetings from Madina.
Thinking of you and your family. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Don't give up. God bless
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Sent it to 15 people at work.
Best of luck, Paulo. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings
