Tuition fund for Karin: a degree in civil engineering at Leipzig Polytechnic
A first-generation student, Karin needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of a degree in civil engineering.
🇩🇪 Leipzig, Saxony, Germany5,641 views
Karin is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a degree in civil engineering at Leipzig Polytechnic, and is one term away from graduating. She has worked as a shop assistant to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $5,000.
The registrar has said Karin can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Karin 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 Karin would lose her place and scholarship eligibility.
Karin 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 $5,000 goes:
• Final term tuition: $3,100
• Textbooks and materials: $140
• Outstanding tuition balance: $1,760
Every share and every dollar helps.

Hope things get better soon. It takes guts to ask. Well done. It's not much but it's yours. Blessings.
Your post was clear and honest. Thinking of Leipzig.
Good luck, Fabian. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn.
Keep going, Fabian. I hope things turn around soon. My husband and I read this together!
