I earned a place in Grade 9 at Duque de Caxias Girls' High School, and I couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things I need, including a laptop for the graphic design course, and a uniform.
My mother works two jobs, and the list costs $300, which is more than we have.
I love graphic design and want to become a nurse. 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.
Items on the list: laptop, uniform, shoes, textbooks, calculator and a bag.
Where the $300 goes:
• Laptop: $175
• School uniform and shoes: $65
• Textbooks and workbooks: $50
• Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $10
I hope life is good to you.
- Gabriela

Best of luck, Gabriela. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Love from Kasarani
is there anything that isn't money that would help Gabriela?
Thank you. If you're in Duque de Caxias I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Good question.
Thanks for sharing this, Gabriela. Hope you get there. I have a 10 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best.
sending love. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless.
Keep going. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
Sending love. This could happen to any of us. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Lafayette
