Sanjay won a place at Kathmandu International School but the family can't afford the uniform, books and laptop required.

Sanjay earned a place in Grade 9 at Kathmandu International School, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things He needs, including a laptop for the mathematics course, and a uniform.
The family has few resources; the list costs $165, which is more than they have.
Sanjay loves mathematics and wants to become an engineer. A laptop will allow coursework at home instead of waiting for library hours.
He 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 $165 goes:
• Laptop: $105
• School uniform and shoes: $30
• Textbooks and workbooks: $25
• Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $5
With deep gratitude,
Nirmala

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Sanjay!
It's all in the list in the story. laptop is the big one at $105, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Thanks, that means a lot.
Keep going. Shared it with a few friends. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best
Praying for you, Nirmala. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Kathmandu
As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Greetings from Rome
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Kathmandu!
Hope things get better soon. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't give up.
Sending strength, Nirmala. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.

So sorry you're going through this, Nirmala. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
Keep going, Nirmala. I hope things turn around soon. All the best!
You're not alone. Shared it with a few friends. Sent it to 8 people at work. Blessings
