One semester away: help Pradeep graduate from Dehiwala State College
A first-generation student, Pradeep needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a teaching qualification.

Pradeep is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a teaching qualification at Dehiwala State College, and is two terms away from graduating. He has worked as a tutor to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $1,050.
The registrar has said Pradeep can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Pradeep has a 3.8 average, and a professor has written in support.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Pradeep would lose his place and scholarship eligibility.
Pradeep isn't asking for a handout - He wants to finish what He started and help the next student.
The payment will go directly to the Dehiwala State College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $1,050 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $490
• Textbooks and materials: $70
• Final term tuition: $490
Thank you so much.

Updates from Rasika
Good news. Because of your gifts ($218 in total) the plan for outstanding tuition balance is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
Thank you all. We're at 9% now ($90). I'm honestly stunned. the first invoice got paid this week.

Hope it all works out. Study hard! Put this on a community board in San Miguel de Tucumán this morning. Love from San Miguel de Tucumán.
Wishing you peace, Rasika. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
I hope things turn around soon. Love from Hanoi.
so sorry you're going through this, Rasika. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out.
