Krishnan is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a computer science degree at Ludhiana Polytechnic, and is one term away from graduating. He has worked as a tutor to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $1,000. The registrar has said Krishnan can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Krishnan has a 3.8 average, and a professor has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Krishnan would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Krishnan 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 Ludhiana Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $1,000 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $480 • Final term tuition: $440 • Exam and lab fees: $40 • Textbooks and materials: $40 With deep gratitude, Sudha

  • Sending strength. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry

    • You're not alone. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Anaheim.

      • How is Krishnan doing now?

        • As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. I hope May is when things finally get easier.
