Marcus is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying an electrical engineering diploma at London University, and is one semester 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 $4,800.
The registrar has said Marcus can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Marcus has a first-class 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 Marcus would lose his place and scholarship eligibility.
Marcus 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 London University bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $4,800 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $2,300
• Final term tuition: $2,300
• Exam and lab fees: $200
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Is there anything that isn't money that would help Marcus?
Thank you. If you're in London I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Good question.
Praying for you, Nora. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Surabaya
Hope things get better soon, Nora. Hope this works out for you. I hope October is when things finally get easier. God bless
How is Marcus doing now?
Hope things get better soon. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. After 9 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
Sending good thoughts, Nora. Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Bogotá but we're thinking of you.
Sending love. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. Sent it to 30 people at work
wishing you peace. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. God bless.
