FAMILY EXPENSE

Donation protected


My name is Erick Nills Nyambuoro, a Kenyan international on a student VISA studying architecture under scholarship at Norwich University, in Northfield, Vermont.  Above is my wife who also secured a chance at Norwich to study degree in actuarial science under partial scholarship. Unfortunately, her sponsor died mid-July when undergoing cancer chemo. This happened immediately after my wife had reported to Norwich.  She can’t now proceed with her studies anymore since we can no longer afford her tuition fee.  Things have been very difficult to me as I can’t raise her air ticket back home. Moreover, she is pregnant and needs my attention.  I have gone an extra mile of getting her health insurance talked to my host family to accommodate both of us till I finish my studies. I have exhausted all manner of assistance which has not bore any fruit, I have even tried to assume that things are fine.  Now it has reached a point where the school has cancelled her F1 student visa and advised me to change it to F2 which means she will entirely dependent on me.  Reaching here is my last resort, I can’t do much since am also on an F1 visa which only allow me to work in school and for a maximum of 20hrs a week which in turn is affected by my classes. I am in the process of dealing with how my wife can legally remain in USA here with me till I finish my studies. I am requesting for any assistance to help me acquire a means of movement to help me get to school in time and to extend my working hours at school
and also to help my wife meet her hospital appointments. However heavy for my host family who also hardly pay for their bills, they have accepted accommodating us for the rest of my stay here in USA.  I have been saving for a small car to since January for this and it has reached $1000. It would cost me 4200 dollars to accomplish this.  My studies here is a treasure to my less privileged community in Kenya. Any contribution will be highly appreciated. GOD BLESS YOU
