Tomoya has worked and saved for five years to study a degree in social work; a $3,250 gap now stands between him and graduation.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a degree in social work at Kitakyushu Community College, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a warehouse packer to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $3,250.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.8 average, and my faculty supervisor 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.
The payment will go directly to the Kitakyushu Community College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $3,250 goes:
• Textbooks and materials: $250
• Outstanding tuition balance: $2,050
• Final term tuition: $950
With deep gratitude,
Tomoya

Thinking of you, Tomoya. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Rawalpindi donated after I showed her your page. God bless.
good luck, Tomoya. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Akron.
Sending good thoughts. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Kitakyushu
wishing you peace. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. All the best
Good luck with the exams, you've got this. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Hope you get there. Greetings from Utrecht.

You're not alone, Tomoya. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Seville.
