Carmen earned a place in the first year of senior school at Timișoara 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 $400, which is more than they have.
Carmen loves design and technology and wants to become an architect. 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 $400 goes:
• Laptop: $210
• School uniform and shoes: $40
• Textbooks and workbooks: $95
• Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $55
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Carmen!
It's all in the list in the story. laptop is the big one at $210, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. I'll keep the page updated.
