Kshitija earned a place in Year 11 at Mumbai International 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 $150, which is more than they have. Kshitija loves graphic design and wants to become a pilot. A laptop will allow coursework at home instead of waiting for library hours. She will take care of everything given and works very hard. Items on the list: laptop, uniform, shoes, textbooks, calculator and a bag. Where the $150 goes: • Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $10 • Laptop: $85 • School uniform and shoes: $55 Every share and every dollar helps.
