Salim is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a degree in civil engineering at Cairo University, and is two terms away from graduating. He has worked as a warehouse packer to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $800. The registrar has said Salim can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Salim has a distinction average, and an academic advisor has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Salim would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Salim 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 $800 goes: • Outstanding tuition balance: $330 • Final term tuition: $370 • Exam and lab fees: $45 • Textbooks and materials: $55 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
