Thank you all. We're at 23% now ($148). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for school uniform and shoes is now scheduled.
We're at 17% thanks to 3 of you. I made the first payment toward calculator, stationery and a school bag. More news soon.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($103 in total) we've started the first stage. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

thinking of you and your family. Study hard! Wish I lived closer to Mumbai so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Medina
Keep going. Shared it with a few friends. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Thinking of you, Omar. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
hope it all works out. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Medina.
