Sophie is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a master's in public health at Los Angeles University, and is one term away from graduating. She has worked as a barista to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $4,600. The registrar has said Sophie can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Sophie has a first-class 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 Sophie would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Sophie 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 $4,600 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,450 • Final term tuition: $2,650 • Exam and lab fees: $250 • Textbooks and materials: $250 With deep gratitude, Caroline

              Good luck, Caroline. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. It's not much but it's yours.
