One semester away: help Ismael graduate from Quezon City State College

Ismael has worked and saved for three years to study a computer science degree; a $600 gap now stands between him and graduation.

Quezon City
Ismael is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a computer science degree at Quezon City State College, and is one term away from graduating. He has worked as a barista to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $600. The registrar has said Ismael can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Ismael has a 3.9 average, and an academic advisor has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Ismael would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Ismael 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 $600 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $220 • Final term tuition: $290 • Exam and lab fees: $30 • Textbooks and materials: $60 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Updates from Angelica

  1. Update from Quezon City: the first invoice got paid this week. We're at 56% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($190 in total) I made the first payment toward exam and lab fees. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
