A New Laptop for Ahliria who loves to learn

Posted Jul 27, 2020
Ahliria needs a laptop to access learning material during a time in which her school is closed for an extended period due to the spread of COVID-19. Her family has limited resources and does not have a computer for her to use. Ahliria has overcome many school challenges and is now excelling earning a place on the honor roll this past school year. Adjusting to life during a pandemic has been challenging for her, specifically being at home without access to many of the online resources her peers enjoy. Her wish is to have a laptop to continue her learning during this time. Ahliria is a bright young lady who has experienced much adversity and this simple wish would allow her to continue thriving academically.

Ahliria is 18 years old and lives in VA

Ahliria is a strong-willed, creative, and intelligent young woman. She enjoys watching movies, playing games with her family, and going swimming. She and her younger sister have just finalized their adoption with their aunt and uncle. Although her three-year journey in foster care was tough, particularly the separation from her mother and two younger siblings, she has been able to find ways to cope and develop her own identity. Along the way, she has faced and overcome many school challenges and adjustments. She has excelled in school this past year earning a place on the honor roll. She likes her school environment and has made friendships with other peers. Ahliria has shown strengths in communicating her thoughts and feelings along with showing the ability to adapt to different situations and environments.
