Tuition fund for Mutua: an accounting degree at Nairobi Polytechnic
Mutua has worked and saved for four years to study an accounting degree; a $450 gap now stands between him and graduation.
🇰🇪 Nairobi, Kenya970 views
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an accounting degree at Nairobi Polytechnic, 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 $450.
The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.9 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.
The payment will go directly to the Nairobi Polytechnic bursar's office. I'll post the receipt.
Where the $450 goes:
• Final term tuition: $380
• Exam and lab fees: $55
• Textbooks and materials: $15
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Sending love, Mutua. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. All the best.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Mutua?
Hang in there, Mutua. I hope things turn around soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless.
rooting for you. Looking forward to the next update. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Nairobi.
Your post was clear and honest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Manchester
Take care, Mutua. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My neighbor in Port Harcourt donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Port Harcourt
