Elijah earned a place in Year 10 at Swansea 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 coding course, and a uniform. The family has few resources; the list costs $700, which is more than they have. Elijah loves coding 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 $700 goes: • Laptop: $430 • Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $110 • Textbooks and workbooks: $160 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Douglas

      Thank you. If you're in Swansea I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks, that means a lot.

  • Thanks for sharing this. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Hồ Chí Minh City.

      Hope it all works out, Douglas. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Take care.

      • Thinking of you. Shared it with a few friends. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
