I earned a place in Year 10 at the Milan Selective School, and I couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things I need, including a laptop for the mathematics course, and a uniform. My mother works two jobs, and the list costs $550, which is more than we have. I love mathematics and want to become a nurse. 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. I'll buy the items from the school's approved supplier and post photos of everything. Where the $550 goes: • Laptop: $310 • School uniform and shoes: $85 • Textbooks and workbooks: $155 Every share and every dollar helps.

          keep going, Valentina. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Milan.

          • Stay strong, Valentina. I hope things turn around soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.

            • Thanks for sharing this. I hope things turn around soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too!
