Josephine is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a nursing degree at Hobart Community College, and is one semester 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 $3,350. The registrar has said Josephine can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Josephine has a top-ten-percent 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 Josephine would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Josephine 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 $3,350 goes: • Final term tuition: $1,300 • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,950 • Exam and lab fees: $100 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Beau

      Sending strength, Beau. Study hard! I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Cebu City.

        Good luck. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.
