René is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a nursing degree at Lyon University, and is one semester away from graduating. He has worked as a barista to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $3,550. The registrar has said René can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. René has a 3.9 average, and an academic advisor has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term René would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. René isn't asking for a handout - He wants to finish what He started and 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 $3,550 goes: • Final term tuition: $970 • Outstanding tuition balance: $2,400 • Exam and lab fees: $180 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

  • stay strong, Alice. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Take care.

    • Rooting for you, Alice. Study hard!

      • So sorry you're going through this, Alice. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
