I earned a place in Form 4 at Amsterdam Boys' High School, and I couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things I need, including a laptop for the mathematics course, and a uniform.
My mother works two jobs, and the list costs $500, which is more than we have.
I love mathematics and want to become an architect. 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.
I'll buy the items from the school's approved supplier and post photos of everything.
Where the $500 goes:
• Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $65
• School uniform and shoes: $210
• Textbooks and workbooks: $225
If you're reading this, thank you.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Esther
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. calculator, stationery and a school bag is the biggest at $65. I'll keep the page updated.
wishing you the best. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Thane
Praying for you, Esther. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Amsterdam.
how is Esther doing now?
You're not alone, Esther. Hope you get there. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Zaria.
hope things get better soon, Esther. Hope this works out for you
Stay strong. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Puebla.
keep going. Hope this works out for you
thinking of you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 18 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Hope it all works out. Shared this with my family. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Good luck, Esther. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn
So sorry you're going through this, Esther. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Tiruchirappalli so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Amsterdam.
