Help Birgitta start the school year with the right tools
Birgitta won a place at the Malmö Selective School but the family can't afford the uniform, books and laptop required.
Anywhere in the world1,545 views
Birgitta earned a place in Year 11 at the Malmö Selective School, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things She needs, including a laptop for the biology course, and a uniform.
The family has few resources; the list costs $1,050, which is more than they have.
Birgitta loves biology 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 $1,050 goes:
• Laptop: $580
• School uniform and shoes: $165
• Textbooks and workbooks: $220
• Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $85
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Sending good thoughts, Helena. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Birgitta?
Thank you. If you're in Malmö I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Good question.
Best of luck, Helena. Study hard! My husband and I read this together. Take care.
