Ramon is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying an electrical engineering diploma at Toronto Polytechnic, and is one term 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 $3,250. The registrar has said Ramon can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Ramon has a 3.8 average, and a department head has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Ramon would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Ramon isn't asking for a handout - He wants to finish what He started and help the next student. The payment will go directly to the Toronto Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $3,250 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $820 • Final term tuition: $2,050 • Exam and lab fees: $80 • Textbooks and materials: $300 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

      Thanks for sharing this, Nenita. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. God bless!

        Looking forward to the next update. After 17 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
