Tuition fund for Mercy: a diploma in hospitality management at Naivasha Community College

Mercy is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a diploma in hospitality management at Naivasha Community College, and is one semester away from graduating. She has worked as a library assistant to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $400. The registrar has said Mercy can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Mercy has a 3.8 average, and an academic advisor has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Mercy would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Mercy 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 $400 goes: • Exam and lab fees: $30 • Outstanding tuition balance: $350 • Textbooks and materials: $20 Thank you for reading my story.
