Explain your plan

Tell us about how you contribute currently, and how you would contribute if WMF were to gift a used laptop to you. Currently I am involved in editing, developing tools and all that has to do with technical areas of the projects for the movement. The sole purpose of the laptop will be to facilitate my volunteering *(only)* to the WMF projects which I currently find difficult doing with the limited resources(a five-year old laptop) which I have in possession at the moment.

Also, as observed here, I really do not want to stop contributing due to lack of a laptop. So I think the laptop will serve as a great tool for me to submit more patches as my support from the developers from Africa with little or no limitation.
