I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a master's in public health at São Paulo University, 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 $850. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a distinction average, and my faculty supervisor 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. Everything raised goes to the university's accounts office toward the outstanding balance and the final term's fees. Where the $850 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $350 • Final term tuition: $350 • Exam and lab fees: $100 • Textbooks and materials: $50 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

    Hope this works out for you. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Uberlândia.

      Take care, Lúcia. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. After 19 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
