Petra is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a nursing degree at Munich University, and is one semester away from graduating. She has worked as a delivery rider to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $4,650. The registrar has said Petra can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Petra has a 3.6 average, and a faculty supervisor has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Petra would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Petra isn't asking for a handout - She wants to finish what She started and help the next student. The payment will go directly to the Munich University bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $4,650 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $2,650 • Exam and lab fees: $170 • Final term tuition: $1,830 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

      is there anything that isn't money that would help Petra?

          hang in there, Frieda. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. After 29 years in retail I know how hard it is to ask for anything

            Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My neighbor in Casablanca donated after I showed her your page. All the best.

                  wishing you the best, Frieda. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
