Tuition fund for Ella: a pharmacy diploma at Macon Polytechnic
A first-generation student, Ella needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a pharmacy diploma.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a pharmacy diploma at Macon Polytechnic, and I'm two terms away from graduating. I have worked as a barista to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $1,850.
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 professor 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.
Everything raised goes to the university's accounts office toward the outstanding balance and the final term's fees.
Where the $1,850 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $1,550
• Exam and lab fees: $150
• Textbooks and materials: $150

hope things get better soon. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless.
Thinking of you. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. God bless
Keep going. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. After 22 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Macon.
Wishing you the best, Ella. Hope this works out for you. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
You're not alone. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to São Paulo so I could bring a meal. All the best
Thanks for sharing this, Ella. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Ludhiana.
Sending love, Ella. Your post was clear and honest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
