Upendo's final semester of an accounting degree in Nairobi
A first-generation student, Upendo needs help covering tuition for the final stretch of an accounting degree.
🇰🇪 Kenya1,286 views
Upendo is the first person in the family to go to university. She is studying an accounting degree at Nairobi Community College, and is one term 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 $750.
The registrar has said Upendo can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Upendo has a first-class 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 Upendo would lose her place and scholarship eligibility.
Upendo 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 $750 goes:
• Outstanding tuition balance: $320
• Final term tuition: $360
• Exam and lab fees: $20
• Textbooks and materials: $50
Every share and every dollar helps.
