I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a nursing degree at San Jose Polytechnic, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a library assistant to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $5,400. 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. Everything raised goes to the university's accounts office toward the outstanding balance and the final term's fees. Where the $5,400 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $2,700 • Final term tuition: $2,150 • Exam and lab fees: $310 • Textbooks and materials: $240 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

  • Sending strength, Evelyn. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings

    • sending strength, Evelyn. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it

      • I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Bornova.
