Em, 18 years old, RI

Wish submitted by:

Em was adopted at the age of six and experienced profound loss when her adoptive mother passed away traumatically just a few years later. While navigating the stages of grief, she also endured significant abuse, presenting challenges that would overwhelm many. Despite these hardships, Em has demonstrated remarkable resilience and strength. She has grown into a determined young person who is ready to move forward. As she applies to college, she is excited about independence and the opportunity to build a new chapter for herself.

Em is really focused on her college dreams, but she's hitting some roadblocks when it comes to getting the tech she needs for her studies. An iPad would make a huge difference for her as she gets ready for college. It would help her access online materials, take notes, work together with her classmates, and stay organized. Whenever she talks about her plans for college, you can see how passionate she is about continuing her education, but she also worries about how to afford the essential tools she needs to succeed. An iPad would really help her connect with her studies and get closer to making her college dreams a reality.
