Crystal is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a degree in civil engineering at Toronto Polytechnic, and is one term 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 $4,550. The registrar has said Crystal can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Crystal 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 Crystal would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Crystal 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 Toronto Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $4,550 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $2,950 • Final term tuition: $1,150 • Exam and lab fees: $240 • Textbooks and materials: $210 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
