Likoni
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying an electrical engineering diploma at Likoni State College, and I'm two terms away from graduating. I have worked as a night-shift cleaner to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $700. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a top-ten-percent average, and my professor 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 $700 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $380 • Final term tuition: $230 • Exam and lab fees: $25 • Textbooks and materials: $65 Every share and every dollar helps. - Nakato

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($163 in total) the plan for outstanding tuition balance is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Thank you all. We're at 35% now ($243). I'm honestly stunned. we've booked the dates and paid the deposit.

  3. Small update. $378 so far, we've booked the dates and paid the deposit.
