I earned a place in Year 11 at the Porto Alegre Selective School, and I couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things I need, including a laptop for the robotics course, and a uniform. My mother works two jobs, and the list costs $300, which is more than we have. I love robotics 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. I'll buy the items from the school's approved supplier and post photos of everything. Where the $300 goes: • Textbooks and workbooks: $75 • School uniform and shoes: $65 • Laptop: $160 With deep gratitude, José
