In the FAWE Girls’ computer Computer Lab, students had a typing exercise where they typed compositions about themselves using WordPad. 

The students wrote the composition about themselves in their notebooks and then typed it on a computer using WordPad. By learning this, they can become more skillful when they type on an MS word document, they can apply what they have learned in their studies, and they have a better understanding of computer parts, and how to properly use the keyboard and mouse.  The girls had fun writing about themselves and improved their computer skills while doing so.  

Your generous support continues to impact the girls' education at the FAWE School. We are truly grateful for your generosity. Every dollar donated makes an impact on girls' education.

We warmly invite you to consider setting up a recurring donation to continue girls' education if you haven't already done so. Please also share this with your contacts and invite them to consider supporting this ongoing project.

If you have any questions, please feel free to email us at GlobalGiving@developafrica.org.
