A Chromebook for Amy who aims to be a surgeon one day

Posted Feb 14, 2025
Amy has never had a Chromebook, and it's really been holding her back. She's struggling to keep up with her school assignments and finds it hard to connect with her siblings, who are separated from her. Without access to this important tool, she feels limited in her ability to learn and succeed. She dreams of becoming a surgeon one day, but her current technology situation makes that dream feel out of reach. What's even tougher is that Amy is shy and often feels like asking for help would burden others. Her past experiences have left her feeling disconnected and hesitant to reach out. Having a Chromebook would truly make a difference for Amy. It would help her catch up with her schoolwork and allow her to communicate more easily with her siblings. Granting this wish could open up new opportunities for her, not only in her education but also in rebuilding those important family connections.

Amy is 16 years old and lives in CA

Amy is a young person who recently entered the foster care system after experiencing incredible hardship at the hands of her parents. Now, Amy is on a path to recovery, working through the trauma and loss she has endured. She's determined to find hope and happiness again. Despite everything she's been through, Amy has managed to keep her spirit alive; she shares a goofy side with her foster siblings and has formed a close bond with her roommate. With a fierce desire for a better future, Amy is focused on her education. Despite all the challenges in her life, she remains a dedicated student, proving that she can rise above her circumstances and chase her dreams—especially her goal of attending university.
