Andy, 18 years old, NM | 11 DAYS WAITING

Wish submitted by:

Andy is a real fighter. He’s been through a lot, including the loss of family members and a tough upbringing in foster care, where he moved around so much that he couldn’t finish high school. Some days, he didn’t even have a stable place to sleep or shower. But Andy knows he needs to get his GED to open up better job opportunities for himself. Despite everything he’s faced, he always manages to keep a sense of humor and has a knack for making friends wherever he goes.

Andy really wants to earn his GED to better his future. He's motivated and has applied for several jobs, and the feedback he keeps getting is to finish his GED or diploma first. He can't afford a laptop to complete the online courses, which is holding him back. A laptop would speed up the process so he can find work and cover food and other basics.
