Christian earned a place in Form 4 at Manila Boys' High School, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things He needs, including a laptop for the design and technology course, and a uniform.
The family has few resources; the list costs $150, which is more than they have.
Christian loves design and technology and wants to become an architect. 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: $85
• School uniform and shoes: $40
• Textbooks and workbooks: $25
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Wishing you peace. I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Nairobi this morning.
hang in there. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. My husband and I read this together. Take care.
good luck. I hope things turn around soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. All the best!
Sending love. Hope you get there. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless.
Sending good thoughts. Looking forward to the next update. Love from San Diego
Hope it all works out. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
