Zawadi won a place at Jinja Boys' High School but the family can't afford the uniform, books and laptop required.

Zawadi earned a place in Form 4 at Jinja 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 design and technology course, and a uniform.
The family has few resources; the list costs $150, which is more than they have.
Zawadi loves design and technology and wants to become a teacher. 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 $150 goes:
• School uniform and shoes: $25
• Textbooks and workbooks: $35
• Laptop: $90
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

keep going. I hope things turn around soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Luxor.
good luck. Hope this works out for you. Thinking of Jinja.
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Jinja
Thank you. If you're in Jinja I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Let me know if you want more detail.
You're not alone, Ouma. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier
How is Zawadi doing now?
thinking of you. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. My neighbor in Parramatta donated after I showed her your page. Blessings
stay strong. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out.
This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Jinja.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Zawadi
School uniform and shoes is $25 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Appreciate you taking the time.
Sending strength, Ouma. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'll check back for the next update.
Good luck, Ouma. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. I have a 6 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings.
Wishing you the best, Ouma. Shared it with a few friends. Thinking of Jinja.
Rooting for you, Ouma. Hope you get there. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust
Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Ankara so I could bring a meal
So sorry you're going through this, Ouma. Hope this works out for you. Greetings from San Francisco.
So sorry you're going through this. I hope things turn around soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from London.
