One semester away: help Hudson graduate from Los Angeles Community College

Hudson has worked and saved for four years to study an accounting degree; a $5,050 gap now stands between him and graduation.

Hudson is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying an accounting degree at Los Angeles Community College, and is one semester 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 $5,050. The registrar has said Hudson can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Hudson has a top-ten-percent 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 Hudson would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Hudson 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 $5,050 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $2,350 • Final term tuition: $2,150 • Exam and lab fees: $210 • Textbooks and materials: $340 Every share and every dollar helps.

    Thanks for sharing this, Alexandra. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. After 18 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.
