Sandra earned a place in the first year of senior school at Kumasi Science Academy, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things She needs, including a laptop for the coding course, and a uniform. The family has few resources; the list costs $200, which is more than they have. Sandra loves coding and wants to become a software developer. A laptop will allow coursework at home instead of waiting for library hours. She will take care of everything given and works very hard. Items on the list: laptop, uniform, shoes, textbooks, calculator and a bag. Where the $200 goes: โ€ข Laptop: $110 โ€ข School uniform and shoes: $20 โ€ข Textbooks and workbooks: $40 โ€ข Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $30 Thank you for reading my story.

  • Sending good thoughts, Yaa. This could happen to any of us. After 20 years in accounting I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Take care.
