A working laptop for Tommaso's online degree in Bergamo
Tommaso is studying software engineering on a phone; a used laptop would let Tommaso do assignments properly.

I'm Tommaso, a software engineering student in Bergamo. My laptop broke 6 months ago and I've since been writing assignments and sitting online exams on my phone - it's slow, my work gets lost, and I'm falling behind.
I'm looking for a used laptop with at least 8GB of RAM and a working battery, or any laptop that can run a browser and word processor reliably. I can cover shipping if you can send it, or collect in Bergamo.
I'll take great care of it and be sure to share how my studies go. If you want to upgrade your own and have an old one in a drawer, you could make a big difference.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

You're not alone, Tommaso. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Hope it all works out, Tommaso. This could happen to any of us. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
Hope things get better soon, Tommaso. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
Wishing you the best, Tommaso. Shared it with a few friends. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Iztapalapa
Sending strength, Tommaso. This could happen to any of us. My husband and I read this together. All the best!
Praying for you, Tommaso. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Take care.
Good luck, Tommaso. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Put this on a community board in Ann Arbor this morning!
Praying for you, Tommaso. Shared this with my family. I hope September is when things finally get easier. God bless.
So sorry you're going through this. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Blessings.
Hope it all works out, Tommaso. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Kampala.
wishing you the best, Tommaso. Hope this works out for you. We're a small family in Osaka but we're thinking of you. All the best.
so sorry you're going through this. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Addis Ababa so I could bring a meal
Keep going, Tommaso. Study hard! God bless!
As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. All the best.
stay strong. Hope this works out for you. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Bergamo.
Rooting for you, Tommaso. Your post was clear and honest. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Tlaquepaque
