James is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying an agriculture degree at the Lafayette Institute of Technology, and is two terms 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 $7,150. The registrar has said James can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. James has a 3.9 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 James would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. James 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 $7,150 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $3,150 • Final term tuition: $3,550 • Exam and lab fees: $150 • Textbooks and materials: $300 Thanks for being kind about this. - Faith
