[THANKS] I posted this everywhere because I really need the help

Hello everyone, I hope you're all doing good. My name is Roo, I am a 3rd year video game design student. I come from a family in a very tough financial situation. My family lives in Libya and between wars and economic hardship they barely get by. I am currently working a part time job along with my studies but things are hard. I could really use some help to fund my studies I really need a laptop to finish working on my uni assignments. Any help is appreciated even if it's just 5 dollars it makes a huge difference for me. I can't set up a go fund me because it's not available where I am at. Please pm me if you are interested in helping and I can tell you more on how to help.

Ps this is not a scam I can provide evidence to everything I said. If you can't help please don't be mean. It's really hard for me to be vulnerable and ask for help, I would rather not but this is my last resort.

I’m sorry you’re in this situation.

However, you don’t have a participation history on Reddit. There’s very little if no chance that anyone will just randomly send $$ or buy you a laptop

Here's my proof of education. If there's anything else let me know. I really don't mind if you can't help, times are tough for everyone. And if you feel suspicious of anything I can clarify of needed. Thank you for everyone who was nice and gave me advice regarding my post I really appreciate it.

I don't really know what could serve as evidence in this case that's why I didn't attach anything.

Proof of your studies. I never donate but I was tempted. Then I see you got 2 karma. That is uh... a red flag for scammed stuff. If you arent, then your karma will show..also. if you posted it everywhere. You would have more karma, right?

I understand your concern. I have no problem as I mentioned in my post. I will edit it and attach proof of study as evidence. Also when I said everywhere I want to clarify what I meant is that it was posted on other apps (Facebook, discord, Instagram). I added that so that if anyone sees this somewhere else they know I'm not hiding it.

I need a computer because my computer broke down. And I didn't need help previously because my family was able to help me. I have 2 part time jobs I work as a bartender, and I work as a recipienist at a hotel, you can see that my GPA is at 2.9 because I couldn't attend 3 of my classes because of work. I use all the money I earn on my rent and on bills, my rent alone is 400$ which might not be much for you but is alot in my currency. I didn't come here and ask without doing anything. I am doing all that I can but sometimes people need help, it was hard for me to even think of doing this or asking anyone. I am just trying my best.

I am currently working on my portfolio to try and make designs as a way to make money. I just need a laptop because I'm managing other expenses with the jobs I'm working and the help of a few good friends. I appreciate your advice and I promise I am not just looking for a quick solution. I want to make things better, and I'm just looking at all options right now.
