Josiane is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a master's in public health at Santarém University, and is two terms away from graduating. She has worked as a shop assistant to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $1,250. The registrar has said Josiane can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Josiane has a 3.6 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 Josiane would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Josiane 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 $1,250 goes: • Final term tuition: $630 • Exam and lab fees: $65 • Outstanding tuition balance: $555 With deep gratitude, Viviane
