Shubra
Bilal earned a place in the first year of senior school at Shubra Boys' High School, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things He needs, including a laptop for the mathematics course, and a uniform. The family has few resources; the list costs $150, which is more than they have. Bilal loves mathematics and wants to become an architect. A laptop will allow coursework at home instead of waiting for library hours. He will take care of everything given and works very hard. I'll buy the items from the school's approved supplier and post photos of everything. Where the $150 goes: • Textbooks and workbooks: $45 • Laptop: $80 • Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $25 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Salim

    • is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Bilal.

      • Salim Saeed JaberOwnerAnswerID verified

        Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. textbooks and workbooks comes first ($45) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks for looking so closely.
