Manoel's final semester of a nursing degree in São Paulo

Manoel is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a nursing degree at São Paulo State College, and is one term away from graduating. He has worked as a delivery rider to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $1,950. The registrar has said Manoel can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Manoel 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 Manoel would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Manoel isn't asking for a handout - He wants to finish what He 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 $1,950 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $800 • Final term tuition: $960 • Exam and lab fees: $80 • Textbooks and materials: $110 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
