Overview

I am an 18-year-old high school graduate. I am currently focusing on furthering my education to ensure myself a brighter future.

My goals are to complete college. From there, I would like to become a physical therapist and become very successful in my field.

I need a laptop in order to complete my assignments efficiently and accurately when I start college in January.

Meeting this need will help me because I would love to be able to strive in college despite the fact that I come from an underprivileged household. I would love to be able to experience an equal education as my peers and I fear that my financial issues will be the obstacle stopping me from reaching my goals. I thank you for taking the time to read my story and donating to help further my education.
