UCT Funding

Hello! My name is Asakhe Tshaka, and I am a dedicated Bachelor of Business Science (BBusSc) student specializing in Analytics at the University of Cape Town. Education is my greatest hope for a brighter future, but I am facing challenges that put my academic dreams at serious risk. The National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) is my only source of funding, and while I am deeply grateful for their support, the financial aid is limited. It does not cover all the costs I need to complete my studies, and now I face the devastating possibility of financial exclusion.

I am urgently raising funds to pay for my fee debt, which is critical to keep me on track with my degree. Without your help, I may lose my opportunity to continue studying and pursuing my dreams. Your support will do more than just help me complete my degree—it will give me a chance to create a better life for myself.

This is not just about my education—it’s about a lifeline. I am the first in my family to go to university, and the thought of being excluded because of financial challenges is heartbreaking....
