Sophie earned a place in the first year of senior school at The Hague Boys' High School, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things She needs, including a laptop for the chemistry course, and a uniform.
The family has few resources; the list costs $600, which is more than they have.
Sophie loves chemistry 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.
I'll buy the items from the school's approved supplier and post photos of everything.
Where the $600 goes:
• Laptop: $390
• Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $75
• School uniform and shoes: $135
I hope life is good to you.

Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near The Hague!
Thank you. If you're in The Hague I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks for asking.
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 14 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
hope it all works out. Hope you get there.
Sending strength, Gijs. Hope you get there. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless.
I hope things turn around soon. Love from Tacoma.
Thanks for sharing this. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. All the best!
Thinking of you and your family. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. Greetings from Kadıköy.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best.
Thinking of you and your family, Gijs. Shared this with my family. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Rooting for you. Hope this works out for you. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Dehiwala.
Wishing you peace, Gijs. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless!
Stay strong, Gijs. Hope this works out for you. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Put this on a community board in Eldoret this morning.
