Lwazi is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a computer science degree at the Soweto Institute of Technology, and is one term away from graduating. She has worked as a warehouse packer to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $1,600. The registrar has said Lwazi can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Lwazi has a distinction 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 Lwazi would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Lwazi isn't asking for a handout - She wants to finish what She started and help the next student. The payment will go directly to the the Soweto Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $1,600 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $710 • Final term tuition: $770 • Exam and lab fees: $50 • Textbooks and materials: $70 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Tshepo

  • sending strength. This could happen to any of us. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.

    • Hope it all works out, Tshepo. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Limoges this morning. Blessings.

      • I hope things turn around soon. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Blessings.

        • Stay strong. Study hard! We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
