Albany
Alejandro earned a place in Year 10 at Albany Technical College, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things He needs, including a laptop for the coding course, and a uniform. The family has few resources; the list costs $850, which is more than they have. Alejandro loves coding and wants to become a marine biologist. A laptop will allow coursework at home instead of waiting for library hours. He will take care of everything given and works very hard. Items on the list: laptop, uniform, shoes, textbooks, calculator and a bag. Where the $850 goes: • Laptop: $450 • Textbooks and workbooks: $240 • School uniform and shoes: $160 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
