Help Silvia finish a degree in social work at Los Angeles University - $4,250 to go
A first-generation student, Silvia needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a degree in social work.
🇺🇸 Los Angeles, California, United States3,382 views
Silvia is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a degree in social work at Los Angeles University, and is one term away from graduating. She has worked as a shop assistant to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $4,250.
The registrar has said Silvia can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Silvia has a top-ten-percent average, and a department head has written in support.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Silvia would lose her place and scholarship eligibility.
Silvia isn't asking for a handout - She wants to finish what She started and 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 $4,250 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $2,700
• Final term tuition: $990
• Exam and lab fees: $220
• Textbooks and materials: $340

Good luck with the exams, you've got this. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Newcastle upon Tyne.
looking forward to the next update. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Jimma.
Hope it all works out, Renata. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Take care.
