One semester away: help Graciela graduate from Zapopan Community College
A first-generation student, Graciela needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a degree in social work.
🇲🇽 Zapopan, Jalisco, Mexico880 views
Graciela is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a degree in social work at Zapopan Community College, and is one semester away from graduating. She has worked as a barista to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $1,150.
The registrar has said Graciela can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Graciela 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 Graciela would lose her place and scholarship eligibility.
Graciela 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 Zapopan Community College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $1,150 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $490
• Final term tuition: $520
• Exam and lab fees: $65
• Textbooks and materials: $75

Good luck. Your post was clear and honest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings
Sending good thoughts, Mercedes. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. I'll check back for the next update.
