I'm the first person in my family to go to university. I'm studying a master's in public health at the Riverside Institute of Technology, and I'm one term away from graduating. I have worked as a warehouse packer to pay my way, but this term my hours were cut and I have an unpaid balance of $1,650. The registrar has told me I can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. I have a 3.8 average, and my department head 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. The payment will go directly to the the Riverside Institute of Technology bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $1,650 goes: • Exam and lab fees: $270 • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,200 • Textbooks and materials: $180 Thanks for being kind about this.

            Hope it all works out. Study hard! My husband and I read this together. Love from Mendoza.

            • Thinking of you and your family, Teresa. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best.

              • Thanks for sharing this, Teresa. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless!

                • keep going, Teresa. I hope things turn around soon. Sent it to 20 people at work. Take care.

                    Shared this with my family. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.
