Gabriel is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a degree in social work at the Calgary Institute of Technology, and is one term away from graduating. He has worked as a warehouse packer to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $3,550. The registrar has said Gabriel can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Gabriel 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 Gabriel would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Gabriel isn't asking for a handout - He wants to finish what He started and help the next student. The payment will go directly to the the Calgary Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $3,550 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $2,350 • Final term tuition: $860 • Exam and lab fees: $110 • Textbooks and materials: $230 Every share and every dollar helps. - Craig
