A Laptop for Sienna for school who is determined to succeed

Posted Aug 9, 2019
Sienna's ability to rise above her circumstances is remarkable. She has been taking her classes to complete her GED and is doing exceptionally well. Her final tests are next week and we have no doubt she will pass. She needs a laptop to start the medical assistance program in the fall. She wants to use it for taking notes and completing necessary assignments. She has been trying to use the library but because of her school schedule and the location of her placement she has to travel at night which is not safe for her.

Sienna is 22 years old and lives in CA

Sienna is a resilient and motivated young woman. She has a great smile and genuinely cares about others. She has been the mother hen of her siblings and advocates for their needs as well. She has been in and out of the foster care system the age of 12 due to sexual abuse, neglect, and homelessness. Rather than give up in the face of adversity, Sienna is determined to get her GED because she didn't graduate from high school due to the turmoil and trauma she was experiencing at the time. Her goal after completing the GED program s to go to community college to obtain a medical assistant's certification.
