Siriporn is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a degree in social work at Chiang Mai Polytechnic, and is one term away from graduating. She has worked as a tutor to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $850. The registrar has said Siriporn can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Siriporn has a 3.9 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 Siriporn would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Siriporn isn't asking for a handout - She wants to finish what She 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 $850 goes: • Textbooks and materials: $45 • Exam and lab fees: $45 • Final term tuition: $760 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Manit

  • Wishing you peace, Manit. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn.

      Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Siriporn.

      • Sure. The biggest one is textbooks and materials, $45. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. It helps to be asked.

    • Wishing you peace, Manit. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My husband and I read this together.

      • Sending strength, Manit. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. It's not much but it's yours. Love from San Francisco.
