Gabriela, 20 years old, CA | NEEDED BY 08/22

Wish submitted by:

Gabriela is a dedicated young woman currently in foster care, working hard to create a better future for herself. She is attending college and has chosen not to work right now so she can fully focus on her studies and give her education the attention it deserves. Gabriela understands that doing well in school will open doors for her and provide stability when she ages out of foster care. Her determination to stay committed to her goals, despite the challenges she faces, shows her strength and resilience. Gabriela is building a strong foundation to ensure a bright and independent future.

Gabriela, a college student currently in foster care, would greatly benefit from having her own laptop. As she works toward her degree, a laptop would allow her to complete assignments, access online resources, communicate with professors, and participate in virtual classes from anywhere. Without reliable technology, keeping up with coursework can become a significant challenge, especially when balancing deadlines and research needs. Having a personal laptop would give Gabriela the tools to stay organized, efficient, and connected. This support would not only enhance her academic success but also help her prepare for a strong career path once she leaves foster care.
