Annabelle is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a diploma in hospitality management at the San Francisco Institute of Technology, and is one semester away from graduating. She has worked as a tutor to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $3,050. The registrar has said Annabelle can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Annabelle has a 3.6 average, and an academic advisor has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Annabelle would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Annabelle 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 $3,050 goes: • Textbooks and materials: $220 • Exam and lab fees: $130 • Final term tuition: $2,700 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Eugene
