Hello everyone, my name is Michael. My laptop is on its last breath, it crashes often, the battery is completely dead, and the GPU keeps failing. I’ve had it since 2022, and it was actually the first big purchase I made with my very first paycheck, so it means a lot to me. Unfortunately, after years of heavy use, it’s no longer reliable.

Right now I’m also unable to work due to personal circumstances, which has made it even harder for me to replace it on my own.

With my laptop failing, it’s become difficult to keep up with my studies, stay connected with friends, and unwind through gaming. I rely on my computer every day for writing papers, joining online classes, researching, and keeping track of important files.

I’m hoping to raise $1,500 to purchase a reliable prebuilt gaming PC so I can replace my failing laptop and stay on track with school. The funds will go toward the cost of the computer, taxes, and setup.

Any contribution or even sharing this page would truly mean a lot to me. Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for helping me out. I’ll also post updates as I make progress toward the goal.
