Los Angeles
I earned a place in Form 4 at Los Angeles International School, and I couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things I need, including a laptop for the chemistry course, and a uniform. My mother works two jobs, and the list costs $750, which is more than we have. I love chemistry and want to become an engineer. 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. Items on the list: laptop, uniform, shoes, textbooks, calculator and a bag. Where the $750 goes: • Textbooks and workbooks: $155 • Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $70 • Laptop: $525 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

  2. Thank you all. We're at 60% now ($449). I'm honestly stunned. we've started the first stage.
