I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a law degree at Laredo Community 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 $6,000. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.8 average, and my academic advisor 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 $6,000 goes: โ€ข Outstanding tuition balance: $2,550 โ€ข Final term tuition: $2,850 โ€ข Exam and lab fees: $220 โ€ข Textbooks and materials: $380 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Marisol

    Keep going, Marisol. This could happen to any of us. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Take care.

      Sending strength. Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Porto Alegre donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Laredo.
