Riley is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying a nursing degree at the Hamilton Institute of Technology, and is two terms 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 $5,800. The registrar has said Riley can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Riley has a 3.6 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 Riley would lose her place and scholarship eligibility. Riley 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 $5,800 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $2,650 • Final term tuition: $2,450 • Exam and lab fees: $330 • Textbooks and materials: $370 I hope life is good to you.

    Stay strong, Violet. Hope you get there. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.

    • Take care, Violet. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Mar del Plata!
