Tuition fund for Neema: a degree in social work at Machakos State College

Neema is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a degree in social work at Machakos State College, and is one term 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 $900. The registrar has said Neema can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Neema has a first-class average, and a department head has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Neema would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Neema 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 $900 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $360 • Final term tuition: $430 • Exam and lab fees: $45 • Textbooks and materials: $65 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Joyce
