i am recently living with a kind neighbor who is not related to me at all.....when i first came to them, they said they wqould help me to finish my studies.. they fed me and let me stay at their home...i am a student by virtue of being a working scholar in a university....the school provides an extra allowance of 6 pesos an hour of ou duty....everyday except sundays, we render five hours a day......but in spite of my allowance, it is still not enough for all my needs especially in school and for my daily transportation....i spend 52 pesos a day for fares.......i can't ask anymore for money to my kind neighbor because i am already ashame of their kindness....giving me my food and shelter is enough for them.....nobody can i ask for help....should i stop schooling or sort to some "debt" financing ?

You are very lucky to have a neighbor like that. How many semesters do you have left before you could graduate? Ask for some help from local politicians. They are generous nowadays because of the coming elections. If you cannot get help from them, lessen your load next semester and look for a part-time job.

Ask your parents? Best thing would be to graduate, make your neighbours proud, then repay them when you get a proper job, they'll be proud of you ;)
