Help fund my final year of school
Donation protected
Hello everyone! My name is Ragil (Muhammad Khoiril Huda). I am an Indonesian student currently studying in Malaysia. I am a final year student earning my diploma in tourism management with interest in social issues/activism.
Due to unforeseen circumstances, my family cannot afford to pay for my tuition anymore. My father passed away in late 2013 and my mom is a stay-at-home mother. Our main source of income comes from farming, but after the passing of my father, my family has been struggling financially. I already have found a place where I am able to live rent free.
I want to continue my studies and so have been working to get financing. I first contacted my school seeking financial aid. Unfortunately, however, my school has said that international students are not eligible. I then sought help from some friends. One friend was generous enough to loan me money and, while it certainly helped, it is not enough to cover all of my fees. Of course, I am working part time but but the pay is usually just enough to feed myself and make ends meet.
The total cost for my diploma is RM 24.000. My family has been able to pay approximately RM 14.000 towards my tuition and a few thousand more for my visa. Through various other methods and sources and kindnesses I have been able to raise an additional RM 6000. Despite my effort and my friends' and family's generosity, I am still short RM 4000.
This diploma is important for me. I am the first in my family to attend university and I want to also be the first to graduate. Moving far from home all by myself hasn't been easy, but I can't quit now so close to completing my course. This diploma will give me opportunities to move further with my future plans and endeavors and to be financially independent. I hope to use my diploma to work in Australia thorough work and holiday visa, where I will continue to work hard to pay back loans, personal debts and to save money to continue my studies. There is not much for me to go back to in Indonesia, so this diploma is essential. After so much time, energy, money, and hustle, this little, essential piece of paper is so close and yet, because of this remaining tuition, just out of reach. That's why now I'm swallowing my pride and asking for an extra push over the finish line.
Ultimately, I would love to give back as much as possible to those who help and support my ambitions.
I am asking everyone who’s willing to help. With my effort and the help of others, I believe I can make it and achieve my goals. Please share and if you have any questions, feel free to email me!
