I earned a place in Year 10 at the Vancouver Selective 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 $900, which is more than we have. I love coding and want to become a doctor. 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. Items on the list: laptop, uniform, shoes, textbooks, calculator and a bag. Where the $900 goes: • Laptop: $430 • School uniform and shoes: $270 • Textbooks and workbooks: $160 • Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $40 Thanks for being kind about this.

    Perfect example of someone making a real difference. They took time out of their busy schedule to help me and never made me feel like a burden.
