I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a nursing degree at Nairobi Community College, and I'm two terms 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 top-ten-percent average, and my faculty supervisor 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 Nairobi Community College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $1,100 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $450 • Final term tuition: $590 • Exam and lab fees: $45 • Textbooks and materials: $15 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Barasa

  • thinking of you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to San Fernando so I could bring a meal. Blessings.

    • Sending good thoughts, Barasa. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Wish I lived closer to New Delhi so I could bring a meal.

      • Keep going, Barasa. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

        • Take care. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'll check back for the next update. Blessings
