One semester away: help Faith graduate from Manila Polytechnic
Faith has worked and saved for three years to study a nursing degree; a $550 gap now stands between her and graduation.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a nursing degree at Manila Polytechnic, and I'm one term away from graduating. I have worked as a night-shift cleaner to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $550.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.9 average, and my department head has written in support of my application for a payment plan.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support my younger siblings. Without enrolling this term I'd lose my place and my scholarship eligibility.
I'm not asking for a handout - I want to finish what I started and then 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 $550 goes:
• Textbooks and materials: $45
• Outstanding tuition balance: $490
• Exam and lab fees: $15
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Sending good thoughts, Faith. Shared it with a few friends. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Manila
Wishing you the best, Faith. I hope things turn around soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too
