Tuition fund for Leonardo: a computer science degree at Iztapalapa Community College
Leonardo has worked and saved for four years to study a computer science degree; a $750 gap now stands between him and graduation.

Leonardo is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a computer science degree at Iztapalapa Community College, and is two terms 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 $750.
The registrar has said Leonardo can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Leonardo has a first-class average, and a professor has written in support.
Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Leonardo would lose his place and scholarship eligibility.
Leonardo 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 $750 goes:
• Textbooks and materials: $120
• Final term tuition: $580
• Exam and lab fees: $50
With deep gratitude,
José

Thinking of you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out!
hope things get better soon, José. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. God bless.
Hope things get better soon, José. Study hard! My husband and I read this together. All the best!
