Mateo's final semester of a diploma in hospitality management in Yonkers
A first-generation student, Mateo needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a diploma in hospitality management.
🇺🇸 Yonkers, New York, United States5,214 views
Mateo is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a diploma in hospitality management at Yonkers Community College, 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 $4,750.
The registrar has said Mateo can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Mateo 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 Mateo would lose his place and scholarship eligibility.
Mateo 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 Yonkers Community College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $4,750 goes:
• Exam and lab fees: $370
• Outstanding tuition balance: $1,700
• Final term tuition: $2,680
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Study hard! I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Coyoacán.
Take care, Víctor. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Multan.
Sending strength, Víctor. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Lahore.
Wishing you peace, Víctor. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. It's not much but it's yours.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'm in farming myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings.
Rooting for you. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. After 8 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.
