Seung-hyun won a place at Seoul International School but the family can't afford the uniform, books and laptop required.
🇰🇷 Seoul, Seoul, South Korea2,014 views
I earned a place in Grade 9 at Seoul International School, and I couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things I need, including a laptop for the biology course, and a uniform.
My mother works two jobs, and the list costs $450, which is more than we have.
I love biology 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 $450 goes:
• Textbooks and workbooks: $95
• School uniform and shoes: $80
• Laptop: $275
Every share and every dollar helps.
