Femi earned a place in Year 10 at Port Harcourt Girls' High School, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things He needs, including a laptop for the biology course, and a uniform. The family has few resources; the list costs $150, which is more than they have. Femi loves biology and wants to become an engineer. 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 $150 goes: • Laptop: $90 • Textbooks and workbooks: $35 • School uniform and shoes: $25 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Uche
