Help a student survive a few months

Donation protected
Hello everyone, I am Pedram, I study Master of Science at Politecnico di Milano in Electrical Engineering. I am from Iran (hope it doesn't leave any bad impressions) and I am currently living in Italy to complete my studies. The bad news is that I have encountered some serious financial issues. Unfortunately, our currency back in my home country has dropped in value dramatically compared to Euro (1 Euro equals to 160,000 Iranian Rials in the free market). Initially, when I was applying to study in Italy (for the reasons you might guess yourself), My family and I couldn't imagine this kind of drop in our currency's value and we were shocked after hearing these prices. Thanks to their sacrifices (which includes selling their car and house and living in a rented apartment), I was able to study here for about a year and a half. Also, the Italy government has helped me with a bit of funding but it hasn't been enough. I recently moved out of Milan to a nearby city (about one hour with a train) to reduce my costs. Currently, I am able to survive (and I mean it, sadly) for one month with the balance left in my account. I pay about 300 Euros monthly as my rental fee, and thanks to Italy's government, I am able to buy 5 Euros of grocery daily from a supermarket (which I have managed to survive based upon it). I need about 3 extra months (hence the 900 Euro request) to finish my thesis and exams and hopefully find a job or an internship afterward and being able to handle my own expenses. I hope I am not asking for much and even get to know my donators and return their donations as soon as I got my hands on an income.

Thanks for reading this lengthy request!
