Subject: Request for Financial Assistance to Purchase a Laptop for Engineering Studies

Dear Sir/Madam,

I hope this message finds you well.

My name is K. Sameera Ishara Anthony, and I am currently a first-year student pursuing a degree in Electronic and Telecommunication Engineering at the University of Moratuwa. I am writing to humbly request your kind support in obtaining financial assistance to purchase a laptop, which is essential for continuing my academic work effectively.

My father passed away 18 years ago, and since then, my family has faced many financial hardships. My mother supports our family through daily wage labor, and I work part-time to contribute what I can. Despite these challenges, I remain dedicated to my education and determined to create a better future for my family.

A suitable laptop is crucial for my coursework, including attending online lectures, completing assignments, conducting research, and accessing vital educational resources. Based on current market prices, I estimate that the cost of a laptop suitable for my academic requirements is approximately Rs. 400,000 (around USD 1400).

Any form of assistance—whether full or partial—would be deeply appreciated and would significantly ease the financial burden on my family while enabling me to pursue my education more effectively.

I am committed to working hard and hope that one day, I can support other underprivileged students in achieving their dreams, just as I seek your support today.

Please let me know if any further information or documents are needed. I would be happy to provide them. Thank you very much for considering my request. Your support can truly make a lasting impact on my academic journey.

Sincerely,
K. Sameera Ishara Anthony
