The Isandula Vocational College is a small vocational college in a very poor area of Tanzania, in Africa. The college teaches students to be electricians and automotive electricians, as well as teaching with a driving program. Both are excellent programs and have resulted in nearly a 100% job placement record! Our organization, Orphans Africa, allows orphans to attend for free! This provides a way out of poverty for the orphan children who would otherwise have no escape from poverty. Jobs are plentiful for those who have these skills from the college.
More funds are needed to upgrade the computer laboratory to be able to train more orphan students. The two year program for electricians includes basic computer skills and the computers and computer laboratory are needed to continue teaching these computer skills so graduates can also start their own businesses in whatever community they choose. Computer skills are valuable in employment and building a business. Thank you for your assistance in helping vulnerable children to be independent and productive. Please support this successful program.
