Okello is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a degree in civil engineering at Mombasa State College, and is two terms away from graduating. He has worked as a night-shift cleaner to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $750. The registrar has said Okello can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Okello 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 Okello would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Okello isn't asking for a handout - He wants to finish what He 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 $750 goes: โ€ข Textbooks and materials: $60 โ€ข Final term tuition: $610 โ€ข Exam and lab fees: $80 With deep gratitude, Esther
