Brooks is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a diploma in hospitality management at London State College, and is one semester away from graduating. He has worked as a warehouse packer to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $6,000. The registrar has said Brooks can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Brooks has a 3.9 average, and a faculty supervisor has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Brooks would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Brooks 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 $6,000 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $2,900 • Final term tuition: $2,700 • Exam and lab fees: $270 • Textbooks and materials: $130 Glad we found this place. - Silas
