Used laptop wanted: Karin is studying nursing without a computer
Karin is studying nursing on a phone; a used laptop would let Karin do assignments properly.

I'm Karin, a nursing student in Soweto. 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 Soweto.
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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Study hard! Wish I lived closer to Pune so I could bring a meal
stay strong, Karin. Looking forward to the next update. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Thinking of you and your family, Karin. Study hard! Greetings from Johannesburg
Hope it all works out, Karin. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best
Best of luck. Study hard! This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Soweto!
Thinking of you and your family, Karin. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings
Thanks for sharing this, Karin. Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to St. Petersburg so I could bring a meal.
I hope things turn around soon. Love from Puebla.
Praying for you, Karin. Hope you get there. Take care.
