Campinas
I earned a place in the first year of senior school at Campinas Girls' High School, and I couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things I need, including a laptop for the mathematics course, and a uniform. My mother works two jobs, and the list costs $310, which is more than we have. I love mathematics and want to become a marine biologist. 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. I'll buy the items from the school's approved supplier and post photos of everything. Where the $310 goes: โ€ข Laptop: $180 โ€ข School uniform and shoes: $80 โ€ข Textbooks and workbooks: $45 โ€ข Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $5 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Carlos
