I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an agriculture degree at the Jacksonville Institute of Technology, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a warehouse packer to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $4,200. 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 department head 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 $4,200 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $2,150 • Final term tuition: $1,550 • Exam and lab fees: $300 • Textbooks and materials: $200 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Mackenzie

    You're not alone. Your post was clear and honest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Fort Worth.

    • Reiko Junko Taniguchi

      thinking of you. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. Blessings!

      • Eli Smith

        It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Louisville but we're thinking of you. All the best.

        • Lakmal Indika Silva

          Hope it all works out. Shared it with a few friends. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

          • Chidi Samuel Okonkwo

            Praying for you, Mackenzie. Your post was clear and honest. I'll check back for the next update.
