Rashid's final semester of a computer science degree in Heliopolis
A first-generation student, Rashid needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a computer science degree.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a computer science degree at Heliopolis Community College, and I'm one term away from graduating. I have worked as a tutor to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $1,100.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.9 average, and my academic advisor 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 Heliopolis Community College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $1,100 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $470
• Final term tuition: $560
• Exam and lab fees: $20
• Textbooks and materials: $50
I hope life is good to you.

Thinking of you and your family, Rashid. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Mesa so I could bring a meal
Wishing you the best. I hope things turn around soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Quezon City.
You're not alone. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My neighbor in Ibadan donated after I showed her your page.
