🇮🇹 Rome, Lazio, Italy263 views
Roberta earned a place in Year 11 at Rome Science Academy, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things She needs, including a laptop for the coding course, and a uniform.
The family has few resources; the list costs $650, which is more than they have.
Roberta loves coding and wants to become a software developer. 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 $650 goes:
• School uniform and shoes: $170
• Laptop: $320
• Textbooks and workbooks: $160
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Sending good thoughts, Gennaro. Your post was clear and honest. Sent it to 36 people at work. Love from Grenoble
You're not alone. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Blessings.
how is Roberta doing now?
good luck, Gennaro. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. Thinking of Rome!
Stay strong, Gennaro. I hope things turn around soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
Praying for you, Gennaro. Shared this with my family. God bless
