Isla earned a place in Year 10 at Oakland Girls' High School, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things She needs, including a laptop for the graphic design course, and a uniform.
The family has few resources; the list costs $750, which is more than they have.
Isla loves graphic design and wants to become an architect. 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 $750 goes:
• Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $75
• Textbooks and workbooks: $135
• Laptop: $540

education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
So sorry you're going through this, Gloria. Hope this works out for you
Your post was clear and honest. Wish I lived closer to Brooklyn so I could bring a meal. God bless.
Keep going. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Please keep us posted. Love from Ikeja.
Keep going, Gloria. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Cluj-Napoca this morning. God bless.
