Student Loan Debt

My name is Alex. I just graduated at the end of 2024. That felt like a big deal, something I'm really proud of, but honestly the money side has been tough from the start.

Right now, I've got this student debt hanging over me, almost R400,000 worth. I work and try to handle my finances as best I can, but it's hard to keep up. Some months it feels like I'm barely making it.

I can only put about R6,700 toward the loan each month. After paying for basics like essentials like food, toiletries etc, there's not much left at all. It's this constant thing, juggling everything just to get by you know.

I'm set on paying it back eventually, but the pressure makes it so difficult to think about the future or save anything. Stability seems out of reach sometimes.

Thats why Im asking for help here, hoping maybe some support could cut down the debt a bit. Even a small amount would help ease things, give me some space to breathe while I keep going.

Thanks for reading my story. If you can donate or share the campaign, that would mean a lot. I appreciate it.
