Rome
Ilaria earned a place in Year 11 at Rome 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 graphic design course, and a uniform. The family has few resources; the list costs $750, which is more than they have. Ilaria loves graphic design and wants to become a teacher. A laptop will allow coursework at home instead of waiting for library hours. She will take care of everything given and works very hard. Items on the list: laptop, uniform, shoes, textbooks, calculator and a bag. Where the $750 goes: • Textbooks and workbooks: $145 • School uniform and shoes: $200 • Laptop: $405 Thanks for reading all this. - Martina

    Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Ilaria.

    • Martina PellegriniOwnerAnswerPhoto verified

      Sure. The biggest one is textbooks and workbooks, $145. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one.

    Hang in there, Martina. Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Blessings.
