Lorena earned a place in Form 4 at the Aurora Selective School, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things She needs, including a laptop for the chemistry course, and a uniform.
The family has few resources; the list costs $1,100, which is more than they have.
Lorena loves chemistry and wants to become a software developer. 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 $1,100 goes:
• Laptop: $780
• Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $65
• Textbooks and workbooks: $255
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Thinking of you and your family, José. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Wishing you the best, José. Study hard! Blessings.
Shared this with my family. I'll check back for the next update. Take care!
