Hui is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a pharmacy diploma at the Los Angeles Institute of Technology, and is one term away from graduating. She has worked as a delivery rider to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $3,250. The registrar has said Hui can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Hui has a 3.6 average, and a professor has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Hui would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Hui isn't asking for a handout - She wants to finish what She 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 $3,250 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,350 • Exam and lab fees: $185 • Final term tuition: $1,715 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($1,362 in total) I met with the university and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
