I earned a place in Grade 9 at Worcester Girls' High School, and I couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things I need, including a laptop for the design and technology course, and a uniform.
My mother works two jobs, and the list costs $800, which is more than we have.
I love design and technology and want to become a teacher. 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 $800 goes:
• Laptop: $560
• Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $115
• School uniform and shoes: $125
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Sending good thoughts, Thomas. Shared this with my family. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Entebbe.
Good luck. Study hard! Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Poznań.
Take care, Thomas. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Take care.
