Quetta
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a degree in social work at the Quetta Institute of Technology, and I'm two terms away from graduating. I have worked as a barista to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $350. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a first-class average, and my faculty supervisor 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 $350 goes: • Final term tuition: $185 • Textbooks and materials: $15 • Outstanding tuition balance: $150 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Nida

  • Thinking of you and your family. Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Jakarta donated after I showed her your page. All the best.

    • study hard! Thinking of Quetta.

      • Best of luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 10 year old who wants to send good wishes too!

        • Hope things get better soon, Nida. Looking forward to the next update. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Tallahassee!
