School supplies and a laptop for Halima in Port Harcourt
Halima won a place at Port Harcourt Boys' High School but the family can't afford the uniform, books and laptop required.
🇳🇬 Port Harcourt, Rivers, Nigeria1,520 views
Halima earned a place in Grade 9 at Port Harcourt Boys' High School, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things She 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.
Halima loves design and technology and wants to become a doctor. A laptop will allow coursework at home instead of waiting for library hours.
She 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: $70
• School uniform and shoes: $20
• Textbooks and workbooks: $35
• Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $25
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Best of luck. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
Sending good thoughts. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Sheffield
Hope things get better soon. Shared it with a few friends. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Port Harcourt.
Rooting for you, Joy. Shared this with my family. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
Keep going. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Warri.
So sorry you're going through this, Joy. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Thinking of you and your family, Joy. Study hard! Thinking of Port Harcourt
keep going, Joy. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't give up. Love from Da Nang!
Hope it all works out. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust!
