One semester away: help Laura graduate from La Plata State College
Laura has worked and saved for four years to study a master's in public health; a $400 gap now stands between her and graduation.

Laura is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a master's in public health at La Plata State College, and is one semester away from graduating. She has worked as a tutor to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $400.
The registrar has said Laura can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Laura 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 Laura would lose her place and scholarship eligibility.
Laura 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 $400 goes:
• Final term tuition: $320
• Exam and lab fees: $25
• Textbooks and materials: $55
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

stay strong. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Keep going, Ramón. Shared this with my family. I'll check back for the next update. Thinking of La Plata.
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near La Plata!
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about final term tuition, advice is welcome too. Appreciate you taking the time.
hang in there, Ramón. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. All the best.
Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.

Best of luck, Ramón. Your post was clear and honest. Wish I lived closer to Guarulhos so I could bring a meal. Take care.
Good luck, Ramón. This could happen to any of us. I have a 11 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care
