I earned a place in Year 11 at Malmö Girls' High School, and I couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things I need, including a laptop for the design and technology course, and a uniform. My mother works two jobs, and the list costs $1,050, which is more than we have. I love design and technology and want to become a doctor. 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. Items on the list: laptop, uniform, shoes, textbooks, calculator and a bag. Where the $1,050 goes: • Laptop: $490 • School uniform and shoes: $230 • Textbooks and workbooks: $220 • Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $110 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

  • You're not alone, Emilia. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Malmö.

    • Good luck. I hope things turn around soon. Sent it to 37 people at work. Love from San Francisco.

        Sending love, Emilia. Hope you get there.

        • take care, Emilia. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.
