Diploma on hold, help Deborah access it.
I finished the degree. I just couldn’t walk across the stage. My name is Deborah Bowa. In 2024 I completed every class, every exam, and every field placement for my Diploma in Social Work at Evelyn College. I did the work. I passed. But when graduation day came, I had to watch from the sidelines because I still owed a balance of $1500 on my tuition. For 3 years I showed up. I worked with real families during field placement. I stayed up late studying case management while working part-time to cover what I could. I’m not asking because I quit — I’m asking because I finished, and now the last bill is the only thing stopping me from holding the diploma I earned. Without that diploma, Evelyn College can’t release my transcript. That means I can’t get licensed, can’t apply for social work jobs, and can’t start doing the work I trained for: helping kids in crisis, supporting families, and being someone’s advocate when they need it most. Your gift does 2 things: 1. It pays off the balance so Evelyn College releases my diploma. 2. It puts a trained Social Worker into the community — someone ready to serve right now. Once it’s paid, my diploma is released and I can finally start the career I’ve worked years for. I’m not looking for a handout. I’m asking for a hand up to close the last chapter. Every dollar and every share gets me closer to the stage I missed in 2024. Thank you for believing in second chances .
