Ikeja
Peace is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a degree in social work at Ikeja Polytechnic, and is one term away from graduating. She has worked as a barista to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $700. The registrar has said Peace can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Peace has a top-ten-percent average, and an academic advisor has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Peace would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Peace isn't asking for a handout - She wants to finish what She started and help the next student. The payment will go directly to the Ikeja Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $700 goes: โ€ข Outstanding tuition balance: $180 โ€ข Final term tuition: $430 โ€ข Exam and lab fees: $25 โ€ข Textbooks and materials: $65 With deep gratitude, Olumide

Updates from Olumide

  1. Thank you all. We're at 51% now ($360). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward exam and lab fees.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($60 in total) the plan for outstanding tuition balance is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  3. We're at 6% thanks to 2 of you. the first invoice got paid this week. More news soon.
