One semester away: help Elena graduate from Novosibirsk Polytechnic
Elena has worked and saved for four years to study an agriculture degree; a $1,800 gap now stands between her and graduation.

Elena is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying an agriculture degree at Novosibirsk Polytechnic, and is one term away from graduating. She 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 $1,800.
The registrar has said Elena can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Elena has a first-class 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 Elena would lose her place and scholarship eligibility.
Elena 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 Novosibirsk Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $1,800 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $870
• Final term tuition: $740
• Exam and lab fees: $75
• Textbooks and materials: $115
Thanks for being kind about this.

Outstanding tuition balance is $870 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Let me know if you want more detail.
