Parvin's final semester of a master's in public health in Dhaka
A first-generation student, Parvin needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a master's in public health.
🇧🇩 Dhaka, Bangladesh500 views
Parvin is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a master's in public health at Dhaka State College, and is one term away from graduating. She has worked as a warehouse packer to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $350.
The registrar has said Parvin can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Parvin has a 3.9 average, and an academic advisor has written in support.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Parvin would lose her place and scholarship eligibility.
Parvin 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 $350 goes:
• Final term tuition: $270
• Textbooks and materials: $20
• Exam and lab fees: $60
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

keep going, Ruma. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn.
reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Parvin.
Final term tuition is $270 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Thanks for looking so closely.
Thanks for sharing this. Shared it with a few friends. Thinking of Dhaka.
thinking of you. Your post was clear and honest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
Best of luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
