Grace is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a degree in social work at Ikeja Polytechnic, and is one semester away from graduating. She 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 $600. The registrar has said Grace can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Grace has a 3.6 average, and a department head has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Grace would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Grace isn't asking for a handout - She wants to finish what She 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 $600 goes: • Final term tuition: $510 • Exam and lab fees: $35 • Textbooks and materials: $55 If you're reading this, thank you.

  1. Update from Ikeja: I made the first payment toward final term tuition. We're at 26% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us. - Adewale

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($120 in total) we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
