An Educational Device with a Keyboard for Jordan to keep up in school

Posted Nov 21, 2022
Jordan is in recent remission for Leukemia. While life has not been easy for Jordan, he has remained mentally positive and strong through out the many years of treatments and doctor appointments. Jordan and his family recently had to leave their living situation for safety reasons due to possible DV issues, and they were not able to take many of their belongings. They are currently in a different borough and a brand new school system and Jordan feels as though he is falling behind. Jordan still has to travel with his mother to appointments, which takes time away from his schedule to do his homework. This device would allow jordan to do his homework on the go so that he can tend to his medical and educational needs. His mother cannot afford any additional resources for the kids during this sudden relocation and is trying to focus on keeping her kids safe. Jordan would love to have a device of his own and it would be his very first!

Jordan is 14 years old and lives in NY

Jordan is resilient teen who loves playing board games or any kind of game that involves playing with his family. Jordan is amazing at art and loves spending time with his family while drawing. Jordan is very focused on school and loves learning new things. Life has not been easy for the Jordan, but he continues to focus on building the family dynamic in a positive way. Jordan is kind-hearted and optimistic despite challenges the family is facing.
