Shanice earned a place in Year 11 at Johannesburg International 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 $255, which is more than they have.
Shanice 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 $255 goes:
• Laptop: $135
• School uniform and shoes: $25
• Textbooks and workbooks: $90
• Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $5
Thanks for being kind about this.

so sorry you're going through this, Chantel. This could happen to any of us. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Good luck, Chantel. Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Sending good thoughts. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Johannesburg.
Hang in there, Chantel. Hope this works out for you. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Badagry.
