Fergal earned a place in Year 10 at Cork 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 design and technology course, and a uniform. The family has few resources; the list costs $1,050, which is more than they have. Fergal loves design and technology and wants to become a teacher. 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 $1,050 goes: • Laptop: $530 • School uniform and shoes: $180 • Textbooks and workbooks: $240 • Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $100 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Brian

  • Is there anything that isn't money that would help Fergal?

    • Thinking of you and your family, Brian. Your post was clear and honest. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Dublin.

      • Wishing you peace. Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Móstoles but we're thinking of you!

        • I hope things turn around soon. After 8 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Cork.

          • Hope things get better soon, Brian. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Cork.
