Gilbert is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a diploma in hospitality management at Davao City State College, and is one term away from graduating. He has worked as a night-shift cleaner to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $650. The registrar has said Gilbert can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Gilbert 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 Gilbert would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Gilbert 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 $650 goes: • Textbooks and materials: $30 • Outstanding tuition balance: $230 • Final term tuition: $390 Every share and every dollar helps. - Nenita

  • Thinking of you, Nenita. This could happen to any of us. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.

    • Wishing you peace, Nenita. Shared this with my family. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.

      • Keep going. Shared this with my family. Put this on a community board in Muzaffarpur this morning. God bless.
