One semester away: help Cherry graduate from Makati Polytechnic
Cherry has worked and saved for five years to study a computer science degree; a $300 gap now stands between her and graduation.

Cherry is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a computer science degree at Makati Polytechnic, and is two terms away from graduating. She has worked as a shop assistant to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $300.
The registrar has said Cherry can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Cherry has a distinction average, and a department head has written in support.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Cherry would lose her place and scholarship eligibility.
Cherry isn't asking for a handout - She wants to finish what She started and help the next student.
The payment will go directly to the Makati Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $300 goes:
• Textbooks and materials: $60
• Final term tuition: $190
• Exam and lab fees: $50
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

rooting for you, Fernando. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 28 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Makati
Sending good thoughts, Fernando. Shared this with my family. God bless.
Hope it all works out. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Sent it to 32 people at work. Thinking of Makati.
