School supplies and a laptop for Balaji in Mangaluru

Balaji earned a place in Year 11 at Mangaluru Technical College, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things He needs, including a laptop for the biology course, and a uniform. The family has few resources; the list costs $150, which is more than they have. Balaji loves biology and wants to become a nurse. A laptop will allow coursework at home instead of waiting for library hours. He 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 $150 goes: • Laptop: $55 • School uniform and shoes: $15 • Textbooks and workbooks: $40 • Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $40 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Padma
