Bob's Tuition Fund

Donation protected

MY PROMISE:
*** I plan on fully reimbursing every single person that is kind enough to aid and leave their contact info (email is enough, if you feel comfortable).


BRIEF SCHOOL BACKGROUND:
This past year, I have begun an online, work at your own pace Full Stack Web Development course through the Flatiron School. This has been a tremendous experience and I have received high praise from my advisors and teachers on my projects thus far.

You can take a look at all of my work here on GitHub. My best works are Flubhub - a restaurant style app, and Chichi's Secret Recipes - a personal and public recipe index app (still under construction).

WHAT I'VE DONE AND TRIED:
I am over 75% through our program and am looking at about 1 month left of school if I can meet my goal here and continue to work full-time. I am currently riding PostMates to support myself, and I apply to several jobs (not in my industry yet, just any job that can bring in enough money) every day with no luck to this point.

Before starting this program, I saved and saved, as well as pitched loan requests to family and friends. All in all, I had almost exactly enough to get me through the program. I fell about 1 month and $1000 short. 

THE FINANCIAL DETAILS AND PROBLEM:
The problem is the cost of tuition on top of the cost of living without having a full-time job. Tuition is $1000/month for me, while the bare minimum to support myself per month comes to approximately $1400. I am currently living with my girlfriend who is working full-time at a charter school and is enrolled in a Master's program for teaching. Together we are stretched thin.

FINAL NOTE:
I cannot afford to stop this program and delay graduation and think this is a common dilemma amongst students at the moment but am coming up short on finding alternative, timely, practical solutions. I thank you for taking the time to hear my story and hope you can understand my plight and find this to be a worthy cause!

INCENTIVE:
*I have set $50 donations as a 'Reward Level'. l am prepared to pay everyone who helps back, but those that are willing to contribute that much or more will be paid back at %20 interest and will be reimbursed before everyone else.

Thank you again! Simply taking the time to read this means a lot to me and I greatly appreciate it!

Best wishes,

Bob
