One semester away: help Wekesa graduate from Embakasi University

Wekesa is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a master's in public health at Embakasi University, and is one semester away from graduating. He has worked as a library assistant to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $750. The registrar has said Wekesa can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Wekesa has a distinction 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 Wekesa would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Wekesa 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 $750 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $380 • Final term tuition: $310 • Exam and lab fees: $25 • Textbooks and materials: $35 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Njeri
