Used laptop wanted: Amber is studying public health without a computer

A modest, working laptop is all that stands between Amber and a full online workload.

I'm Amber, a public health student in Baton Rouge. My laptop broke 7 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 Baton Rouge. 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.
