Kasarani
I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a degree in social work at Kasarani Polytechnic, and I'm one semester away from graduating. I have worked as a tutor to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $1,150. 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 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. Everything raised goes to the university's accounts office toward the outstanding balance and the final term's fees. Where the $1,150 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $420 • Final term tuition: $590 • Exam and lab fees: $60 • Textbooks and materials: $80 Thanks for being kind about this.

      Stay strong, Odhiambo. I hope things turn around soon. All the best.

      • Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Brampton donated after I showed her your page.

        • Rooting for you, Odhiambo. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Kasarani

          • Best of luck, Odhiambo. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. All the best

            • hope things get better soon, Odhiambo. Your post was clear and honest. After 23 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
