Quinn won a place at Newcastle upon Tyne Boys' High School but the family can't afford the uniform, books and laptop required.

I earned a place in Form 4 at Newcastle upon Tyne Boys' High School, and I couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things I need, including a laptop for the biology course, and a uniform.
My mother works two jobs, and the list costs $350, which is more than we have.
I love biology and want to become a nurse. 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.
Items on the list: laptop, uniform, shoes, textbooks, calculator and a bag.
Where the $350 goes:
β’ Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $35
β’ Textbooks and workbooks: $230
β’ School uniform and shoes: $85
Thank you for reading my story.

Wishing you the best, Quinn. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Sacramento
Praying for you, Quinn. Hope this works out for you. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Mar del Plata.
Sending strength. Study hard! Thinking of Newcastle upon Tyne.
Sending strength, Quinn. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Bakersfield.
Take care, Quinn. This could happen to any of us. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Lagos.
Thanks for sharing this, Quinn. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier!
Wishing you peace. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Newcastle upon Tyne.
Hang in there, Quinn. Hope you get there. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 20 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything
Hope things get better soon, Quinn. It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 21 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Newcastle upon Tyne!
