One semester away: help Pooja graduate from Bhaktapur Community College
A first-generation student, Pooja needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a teaching qualification.
🇳🇵 Bhaktapur, Bagmati, Nepal1,152 views
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a teaching qualification at Bhaktapur Community College, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a library assistant to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $500.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.6 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 $500 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $145
• Final term tuition: $320
• Textbooks and materials: $35
Every share and every dollar helps.

You're not alone. This could happen to any of us. After 7 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
Praying for you, Pooja. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. I have a 10 year old who wants to send good wishes too
