Pelotas
I earned a place in Year 11 at Pelotas Science Academy, and I couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things I need, including a laptop for the design and technology course, and a uniform. My mother works two jobs, and the list costs $250, which is more than we have. I love design and technology and want to become an architect. A laptop will let me do coursework at home instead of waiting for library hours. I'll take care of everything you give me and I promise to work hard. I'll buy the items from the school's approved supplier and post photos of everything. Where the $250 goes: • Laptop: $130 • School uniform and shoes: $65 • Textbooks and workbooks: $40 • Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $15 Thank you so much. - Antônia

      You're not alone, Antônia. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Badagry.

      • Best of luck, Antônia. Shared this with my family. We're a small family in Mysuru but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Pelotas

              • Best of luck, Antônia. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. All the best
