My name is Thulane Nyandoro, and I’m currently in the final stretch of earning my college degree.

I find myself at a painful crossroads – so close to finishing my college degree, yet completely unsure how I’ll be able to take that final step. I'm pursuing a degree in Procurement and Supply Chain Management, a field that I am deeply passionate about because of its critical role in shaping organizations and communities.

I am now in my final year. I’ve come so far, but I am facing a financial barrier that could prevent me from graduating. I have worked hard for years — through long nights, part-time jobs, and moments when I thought about giving up. But I didn’t. I held on.

Due to ongoing family hardships, financial instability, and health challenges, I am unable to cover the full costs of my final year, which adds up to $2200. This includes:

Finishing my degree would allow me to finally begin my career in procurement, where I hope to work with organizations to improve efficiency, transparency, and sustainable practices in supply chain management.

I’ve come too far to stop now, and with your support, I can take that final step. Every contribution, no matter the size, brings me closer to graduating and starting a future I’ve worked so hard for.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading my story and supporting my dream. Please consider donating or sharing this with others — it would mean the world to me.
