Ezra is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a teaching qualification at Arlington University, and is two terms away from graduating. He has worked as a barista to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $2,500. The registrar has said Ezra can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Ezra has a 3.8 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 Ezra would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Ezra 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 $2,500 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,500 • Textbooks and materials: $95 • Final term tuition: $905 I hope life is good to you. - Mateo

        As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Put this on a community board in Savannah this morning. Thinking of Arlington.
