A New Laptop for Kris who wants to finish his GED

Posted Feb 15, 2019
Kris would love a laptop to help him finish his GED. He just started a new program at the local literacy center, and he is doing great! He is learning to ask for help and speak up when he doesn't understand something. He said a laptop would be very helpful because he could use it both at school and to do his homework at home. He would prefer that the laptop be on the smaller side and have a keyboard if possible.

Kris is 21 years old and lives in OR

Kris is a smart young man who is trying to decide on a career path. He enjoys building things, and likes to learn about history. He enjoys spending time with his foster parents and foster siblings.
