Story
Previously, the university stopped accepting his course work and his thesis & didn't give his exam results. Now, HE HAS BEEN FORCED TO LEAVE THE LAST YEAR OF UNIVERSITY & THE LAST SEMESTER TO TAKE A GAP YEAR & TRY TO FIND WORK TO PAY OFF THE DEBT. However, Sukkur (Where he lives) does not have a high chance of employment.
His mental state is a worry to me as he's struggling to cope and has voiced his concerns over not being able to continue this burden any longer. I AM WORRIED IN CASE HE HARMS HIMSELF.
I am helping a close friend in Pakistan, who is in his final 4th year of university. University is not free in Pakistan and students are required to pay tuition fees.
However, the university does not offer any help to pay off tuition fees such as loans or support programs. His father has sold his gold jewellery to help pay the remaining fees. His father suffered from a stroke and can't work. The main source of income is his father's pension - which is not enough to clear university debts.
There is the burden of covering medical bills for his mother who is receiving treatment from hospital.
100,000 rupees were due which is around £732. 64
I have contributed a £150 pounds already but it is not enough to cleat the debt.
My reason for helping my friend is to help him get back into education and achieve his dreams. He wanted to apply for a scholarship to the UK but that opportunity has been taken away. I want to see him smile again and attain his degree. His has suffered a lot in his life and his education was a doorway to success, stability and happiness.
Please I request everyone to donate as much as you can. Share the page and his story with others. Let's make a life long difference to someone's life.
Thank you for you time and support. I and Zeeshan, are forever grateful for your help.
