Emma Rust computer and college fund

Donation protected
I am starting this go fund me for my little (not so much any more -- growing up!) cousin. She will start college next year. Because of COVID her mother lost her job and their finances are very tight. I am sure that she will receive a good deal of financial aid, but this aid will not cover a new computer or "start up" necessities for her -- including student health fees as well as other required fees on campus. Even when her mother did have work, their finances were very tight. Emma will be the first in her family (parents and grandparents) to go to college. I don't want anything to deter her. She is an excellent and serious student -- besides being a wonderful and kind person. Neither she nor her mother would ask for anything -- which is why I have taken it upon myself to start this page. I have estimated that a new computer (one that is of the quality to last her 4 years) would be about $1200 (this estimate includes tax) and her student fees will be roughly $300. That's why I'm asking for $1500. Emma is exactly the kind of young person who will thrive in college and contribute to society after graduation.  I will be so grateful for any help that you can give -- and I know that Emma and her mother will be overjoyed not to  have to worry about where to come up with the funds for a computer and school fees. I am asking for this financial help now, as I think it will be good to take advantage of any black Friday or cyber Monday deals on new computers.
