Mason, 12 years old, NE | NEEDED BY 08/08

Wish submitted by:

Mason has had a rough start to life, having to care for his siblings while still being a child himself. Mason and his brothers now live with their grandma and are doing well there. He is already learning how to help others in life.  He helps elderly neighbors in his community with their garden, helps his great-uncle with the family farm, and mows the local church lawn.  Mason is also learning that it's okay to be a kid and that grandma is there to take care of his siblings. Mason loves swimming in the summer, playing games, riding his bike, and spending time with his younger siblings.

Mason is being homeschooled by his grandma due to bullying in public school. He has made good progress in his studies, but he doesn’t have a laptop, which limits his access to important educational resources. Having a laptop would greatly improve his learning experience and support his education. This would allow him to complete assignments more efficiently and access online learning tools. With the right equipment, Mason could thrive academically and regain his confidence.
