Computer Proficiency Creates New Opportunities

We all love to have our computers in peak running condition.  It can be so frustrating when you are not able to use your computer at all or not able to access the internet.

As with all equipment, the computers at the FAWE lab need to be maintained - to ensure they are in peak condition for training / use by the girls.  In these photos, you can see Maada, our technician, performing software and hardware maintenance.   He has done an excellent job in keeping all our equipment functional over the past almost 3 years.

Over the past months, we have replaced power supplies and memory. This first week of March 2014, we shipped out 2 replacement computers for this lab at the FAWE school lab.  

Thanks so much for your kind and gracious support that helped provide the 2 additional computers.  We are so thankful that we are together able to provide this on-going training free to the girls at the FAWE school. 

As you may know, last Saturday (March 8th) was International Women's day. On this global day, we celebrate the economic, political and social achievements of women past, present and future. At this time each year, we celebrate women's success and are reminded of inequities that need to be redressed. 

Through this project, you are helping to address the education inequities for women. Your support is furthering the education of girls and preparing them for a great future.  You can see a visual of the impact that we are together making in the included UNICEF infographic.  As the graphic illustrates, the impact of educating girls is far-reaching!  

YOU can help us continue to prepare these budding women by making a donation today.  Your donation of $50 today will proverb 8 hours of computer training.  Thanks so much for your support!
