A New Laptop for Cynthia to use towards her education

Posted Oct 8, 2020
Cynthia loves volunteering in the community during her free time by feeding the homeless, creating care packages, and lobbying for councilmembers. When she is not volunteering, or working, she is studying for her business administration program as a full time student in college. She enjoys helping others and never expects anything in return. She recently expressed that she is in need of a laptop because the old laptop she had stopped working, and is now having to go over friend(s) houses to borrow their laptop and complete her homework assignments. Cynthia would benefits from a laptop so that she can do her school assignments in the comfort of her own home versus having to visit her friends to complete her homework assignments at their place. Additionally, Cynthia enjoys mentoring youth younger than her to provide them with hope and inspiration to remind them that they have support. If you need a smile she is the person to go to, and it would be great to have a smile sent back her way for her involvement in the community despite her current obstacles of not having a laptop to complete her school work efficiently.

Cynthia is 23 years old and lives in CA

Cynthia is an amazing young lady who is currently a participant of a transitional housing program for foster youth as well as her four siblings. Although she has been moved around three times throughout foster care, she has been diligent with obtaining high grades throughout high school, has participated in community outreach programs such as beautification, blood drives, and care packages for the homeless and the elderly. In addition to beginning her first year of college with hopes to become a business administrator, she works part time and hopes to save through budgeting wisely in order to help her younger siblings and herself with money. Although she has not had a stable home until joining our housing program, she is always smiling and thankful for the homes she has lived in, the families who have treated her with kindness and love, and for being granted the opportunity to study and work in the US.
