A computer for Mario to reach his educational goals

Mario, 18 years old

Wish submitted by:

CA DCFS - Los Angeles County

Mario finds himself navigating the complexities of the foster care system, a world he has been a part of since he was just eight years old. Having had no contact with his biological parents throughout these formative years, he has faced numerous challenges. Yet, in the face of adversity, Mario has shown remarkable resilience and determination. In June 2024, he proudly walked across the stage at his high school graduation, clutching his diploma with a beaming smile that reflected his hard work and dedication. Now, with his high school journey behind him, Mario is excitedly embarking on a new chapter—pursuing a degree in aviation technology. His aspirations soar as high as the planes he aims to work with, symbolizing his hope for a brighter future.

In February, Mario will embark on an exciting new chapter as he begins his college journey as a full-time student. As he prepares for this important transition, he finds himself in need of a reliable laptop that will be essential for his academic success. Currently, Mario is not employed, which makes it challenging for him to invest in a quality computer. Having a dependable laptop would significantly enhance his ability to complete school assignments, conduct online research, and engage in his coursework effectively. Any support in securing a laptop would not only alleviate his burden but also empower him to thrive in his studies. Such assistance would truly mean the world to him as he steps into this new phase of life!

Awesome Human grants the wish for Mario! Thanks Awesome Human.

"Hi Mario, As a scientist, I believe there is nothing more important in life than education. I am happy to help you on your academic journey. Someone told me something when I was in college and I always pass it on because I think it is so true- "You don't go to college to get a job. The job may come after, but you go to college to get an education." Learn everything you can, and have fun! Learning is a great joy and should be treated as such. Good luck! Love, Chrissy"
