Disabled non- trad student/needs MacBook Pro or Air

Hi, I recently became an older non traditional student after deciding to tackle an online Intro Computer Science class.


A month in, the family computer went haywire (monitor blinking out, tower requiring rebooting, black screen). It took 13 straight hours of me refusing to quit just to complete and submit a 2 hour assignment.


The class ends in three months. I’m in desperate need of a replacement MacBook Pro or Air, on a fixed income and lacking the means to buy one.


Is there an organization or anyone that might help me?


Thank you so muc.

Thank you so much. I appreciate your kindness! I was trying to keep my post as brief as possible and didn’t get as detailed as I should’ve.


I’m caring for two aging, parents, Dad with Leukemia and Mom with diminished mobility due to strokes.

Leaving her in the home without assistance is an issue.


That’s why this class is such a blessing. I get to, mentally, venture beyond these walls and gain some transferable skills while still being here for them.
