I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an agriculture degree at Curitiba Community College, and I'm one term 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 $1,700. 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 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 $1,700 goes: • Exam and lab fees: $50 • Final term tuition: $1,000 • Outstanding tuition balance: $650 Thanks for being kind about this.

    Praying for you, Otávio. Looking forward to the next update. Blessings.

    • Take care. I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Lagos so I could bring a meal. All the best.

      • So sorry you're going through this, Otávio. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in San Diego donated after I showed her your page
