One semester away: help Joaquín graduate from Tehuacán State College
Joaquín has worked and saved for three years to study an agriculture degree; a $400 gap now stands between him and graduation.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an agriculture degree at Tehuacán State College, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a delivery rider to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $400.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a distinction average, and my department head has written in support of my application for a payment plan.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support my younger siblings. Without enrolling this term I'd lose my place and my scholarship eligibility.
I'm not asking for a handout - I want to finish what I started and then 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 $400 goes:
• Textbooks and materials: $50
• Exam and lab fees: $45
• Final term tuition: $305
Thank you so much.

Praying for you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 14 people at work. Greetings from Wudil.
Sending good thoughts, Joaquín. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings.
wishing you peace, Joaquín. Good luck with the exams, you've got this
Thinking of you and your family. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My husband and I read this together
Take care. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Thinking of Tehuacán!
Hope things get better soon, Joaquín. Shared it with a few friends. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Blessings.
