My Travel Story

by: Petrina Wilbard Start Date: Nov 17, 2020 - End Date: Dec 19, 2020
Hello everyone, my name is Petrina and I created this page in order to help raise some money in order to pay for my tuition fees .
I realize that this might not be the ideal platform as to where I can raise funds for my education but at this point I am desperate and hopeless  
Thank you for your time 
I live in Namibia and I'm attending the Namibia University of Science and Technology enrolled in the bachelor of regional and rural development. This is my final year and at the moment im busy studying for the exams and I'm afraid that I won't be able to get my results for the semester resulting in me not graduating at all.

I'm the elders with 4 younger siblings, my dad passed away a few years ago and it has always been hard for my mom to take care of 5 children by herself. She worked in a hair salon but because of covid she was laid off work, I feel the pressure and I can only imagine how she feels. At times I feel like I'm a disappointment because I cannot get a job to help her out with my siblings. Namibia is one of the countries in Africa with the highest level of unemployment.

I don't know were or whom to turn to anymore because I'm running out of time, I have sleepless nights because I do not know where I'll be able to raise Nam $ 64, 000 equivalent to U$ 4200 to cover for my tuition fees.

If I raise the funds needed to pay for my tuition fees I'll forever be grateful and I pledge to make a difference in my community.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read my page.

Respectfully

Petrina
