Help Valentin start the school year with the right tools
Valentin earned a place in the first year of senior school at Poitiers Boys' High School; we're $650 short on required supplies.

I earned a place in the first year of senior school at Poitiers Boys' High School, and I couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things I need, including a laptop for the coding course, and a uniform.
My mother works two jobs, and the list costs $650, which is more than we have.
I love coding and want to become a software developer. 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.
I'll buy the items from the school's approved supplier and post photos of everything.
Where the $650 goes:
• Laptop: $250
• School uniform and shoes: $165
• Textbooks and workbooks: $165
• Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $70
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Praying for you, Valentin. Shared it with a few friends. Love from Pune.
Hope this works out for you. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Poitiers.
Sending strength, Valentin. Looking forward to the next update. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Stay strong. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Bowling Green
