Saint Paul
Ji-yeon earned a place in Grade 9 at Saint Paul International School, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things She needs, including a laptop for the design and technology course, and a uniform. The family has few resources; the list costs $700, which is more than they have. Ji-yeon loves design and technology and wants to become a marine biologist. 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 $700 goes: • Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $100 • Laptop: $370 • School uniform and shoes: $230 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

                    Thanks for sharing this. I hope things turn around soon. After 24 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
