Victoria is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a law degree at Los Angeles State College, and is one semester 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 $3,750. The registrar has said Victoria can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Victoria has a 3.6 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 Victoria would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Victoria isn't asking for a handout - She wants to finish what She started and help the next student. The payment will go directly to the Los Angeles State College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $3,750 goes: • Textbooks and materials: $280 • Final term tuition: $1,550 • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,920 Every share and every dollar helps.

Updates from Madelyn

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($695 in total) the plan for final term tuition is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Quick update: $409 raised so far (11%). we've started the first stage. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
