Help Willem start the school year with the right tools
Willem won a place at the Johannesburg Selective School but the family cannot afford the uniform, books and laptop required.
🇿🇦 Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa509 views
Willem earned a place in Form 4 at the Johannesburg Selective School, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things He needs, including a laptop for the graphic design course, and a uniform.
The family has few resources; the list costs $250, which is more than they have.
Willem loves graphic design and wants to become a nurse. A laptop will allow coursework at home instead of waiting for library hours.
He 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 $250 goes:
• Laptop: $130
• School uniform and shoes: $50
• Textbooks and workbooks: $60
• Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $10
Every share and every dollar helps.

Hang in there. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care
you're not alone. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Thane
Hope things get better soon. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Chiang Mai.
