Bennett is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a computer science degree at San Antonio University, and is one semester away from graduating. He has worked as a night-shift cleaner to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $4,850. The registrar has said Bennett can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Bennett has a distinction 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 Bennett would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Bennett 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 $4,850 goes: • Textbooks and materials: $180 • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,900 • Final term tuition: $2,770 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Samantha
