Irene is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a degree in civil engineering at Nairobi University, 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 $800. The registrar has said Irene can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Irene has a first-class 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 Irene would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Irene 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 $800 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $480 • Final term tuition: $220 • Exam and lab fees: $45 • Textbooks and materials: $55 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

                Hope it all works out, Florence. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Jimma.

                    Take care. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Nairobi.
