Cape Town
Naledi earned a place in Year 10 at Cape Town 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 mathematics course, and a uniform. The family has few resources; the list costs $250, which is more than they have. Naledi loves mathematics and wants to become a nurse. 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 $250 goes: • Laptop: $155 • School uniform and shoes: $30 • Textbooks and workbooks: $40 • Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $25 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Francois

  • Keep going. I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Cape Town
