Jimma
Helen earned a place in the first year of senior school at Jimma International School, 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 $150, which is more than they have. Helen loves coding 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: • Laptop: $60 • School uniform and shoes: $25 • Textbooks and workbooks: $40 • Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $25 If you're reading this, thank you. - Zewditu

  • hope it all works out, Zewditu. This could happen to any of us. Blessings

    • who gets the funds, you or the school supplier?

      • A colleague of mine might know someone for this in Oromia. I'll ask around and let you know.

        • Is there anything that isn't money that would help Helen?

          • Zewditu ZewdieOwnerAnswerID verified

            Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about laptop, advice is welcome too. Appreciate you taking the time.

        • Hang in there, Zewditu. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Put this on a community board in Mumbai this morning. Blessings.

          • Could you add a copy of the school's supply list with private details blacked out?

            • Zewditu ZewdieOwnerAnswerID verified

              I do, the school's supply list is with the HelpBLESS team. Happy to answer anything else about it. It helps to be asked.

          • Sending strength. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My husband and I read this together. God bless

              Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Helen.

              • Sending strength. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too

                • Stay strong. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Lyon.

                  • Best of luck, Zewditu. Gave what I could, wish it was more. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Jimma

                    • Your post was clear and honest. Sent it to 37 people at work. Love from Rawalpindi
