Ji-hye is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a degree in social work at the Gwangju Institute of Technology, and is two terms away from graduating. She 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 $3,550. The registrar has said Ji-hye can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Ji-hye has a 3.6 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 Ji-hye would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Ji-hye 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 the Gwangju Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $3,550 goes: • Final term tuition: $2,150 • Textbooks and materials: $65 • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,335 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Eun-woo

  • Hope it all works out, Eun-woo. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in social work myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from 6th of October City

    • Thinking of you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 13 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Cape Coast.

      • Hope things get better soon, Eun-woo. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. I hope March is when things finally get easier.
