Thomas has worked and saved for three years to study a degree in civil engineering; a $2,050 gap now stands between him and graduation.

Thomas is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a degree in civil engineering at Riverside Community College, and is two terms away from graduating. He has worked as a barista to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $2,050. The registrar has said Thomas can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Thomas has a top-ten-percent 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 Thomas would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Thomas 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 $2,050 goes: • Exam and lab fees: $100 • Textbooks and materials: $320 • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,630 With deep gratitude, Audrey
