Anna is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a law degree at Berlin State College, and is two terms away from graduating. She has worked as a library assistant to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $4,000. The registrar has said Anna can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Anna has a distinction 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 Anna would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Anna 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 $4,000 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,850 • Final term tuition: $1,750 • Exam and lab fees: $145 • Textbooks and materials: $255 Thanks for being kind about this. - Melanie

      Hope things get better soon, Melanie. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Berlin.

      • a colleague of mine might know someone for this in Berlin. I'll ask around and let you know.

        • sending strength. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. All the best.

          • Take care, Melanie. Your post was clear and honest. Put this on a community board in Mecca this morning. Take care
