A laptop for Nicholai who is finishing his GED

Posted Mar 31, 2025
Nicholai is really excited about finishing his GED because he sees it as a big turning point in his life. It represents his strength and determination to overcome the challenges he faced while in Child Protective Services. Even though he's had a tough journey, he's stayed focused on his education and growing as a person. He knows that earning his GED will help him build a better future. But to reach his goals, Nicholai feels that having a laptop would make a huge difference. It would give him the tools he needs to complete his GED and work toward a stable and successful life. Growing up in child protective services has been challenging for Nicholai. Moving around between foster homes and changing schools often made it hard for him to stick with his education. Despite all of this, he believes in the power of education to change his life for the better. While he has worked hard and made progress, he knows that he needs the right resources to finish what he started. A laptop would help Nicholai find job opportunities, apply for positions, and create professional documents like resumes and cover letters.
