Tuition fund for Juan: a teaching qualification at Palmira Polytechnic
Juan has worked and saved for three years to study a teaching qualification; a $1,150 gap now stands between him and graduation.

I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a teaching qualification at Palmira 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 $1,150.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.8 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.
The payment will go directly to the Palmira Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $1,150 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $590
• Final term tuition: $420
• Exam and lab fees: $75
• Textbooks and materials: $65
With deep gratitude,
Juan

Best of luck. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn
Sending good thoughts. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Rome so I could bring a meal. Take care

It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Puebla.
