This is a campaign to raise money for a friend. Life has not been kind to her despite the fact that she had tried everything to rise above her circumstances. She is in her final year of studying Law part-time, and she works full-time. She was hired by a law firm with the understanding that she will complete her clerkship, as well as finish her degree, but she can only take three modules per semester.
However, last year the law changed, and she was not informed about the changes, so she missed the deadline to register her clerkship, and the new law states that you cannot complete a clerkship together with your degree.
The University added three additional modules which brings her total modules for her final year to nine and her thesis. Her job has informed that they will not give her additional time off to study and write exams, she has to take it from her annual 15days and the rest will be unpaid.
With all the stress she’s been under she has also been diagnosed with Leaky gut, Celiac disease, the inability to produce and absorb vitamin D3, Gluten intolerance, a viral infection in her gut and adrenal fatigue. This all costs money, which she does not have.
She is 35years old and she is still living with her parents and older brother. Her brother doesn’t support her and he makes her living at her parents unbearable. Her dream is to have a place of her own, but that dream is still on hold for the time being.
I have asked her to draw up a budget in order for me to see what her basic needs are. For her to be able to study full-time and finish her final year and maintain her health for the year, she needs $10 233.69 (R141 983.64).
It is a lot of money and I would gladly give it to her if I had the funds. She is so deserving of every penny that is donated, and she will forever be grateful for this helping hand.
Your contributions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanking you in advance for your support.
