Help Gugu start the school year with the right tools
Gugu earned a place in Year 10 at Pretoria Boys' High School; we are $150 short on required supplies.

Gugu earned a place in Year 10 at Pretoria 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 biology course, and a uniform.
The family has few resources; the list costs $150, which is more than they have.
Gugu loves biology and wants to become a pilot. 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:
• Textbooks and workbooks: $30
• School uniform and shoes: $30
• Laptop: $90
If you're reading this, thank you.

how is Gugu doing now?
Praying for you, Ruan. Gave what I could, wish it was more. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Sending strength, Ruan. Hope this works out for you.
Hope things get better soon. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Take care.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Gugu?
Thank you. If you're in Pretoria I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. It helps to be asked.
good luck, Ruan. Good luck with the exams, you've got this.
Sending love. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Mohammedia.
Sending strength. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. Love from Gold Coast
Shared this with my family. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Curitiba.
