I earned a place in Year 10 at Arusha Technical College, and I couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things I need, including a laptop for the biology course, and a uniform.
My mother works two jobs, and the list costs $115, which is more than we have.
I love biology and want to become a doctor. 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 $115 goes:
• Laptop: $45
• School uniform and shoes: $25
• Textbooks and workbooks: $40
• Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $5
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Arusha.
Thank you. If you're in Arusha I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Let me know if you want more detail.
Shared this with my family. We're a small family in Jakarta but we're thinking of you. All the best
hope things get better soon. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. All the best!
hope things get better soon. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless.
