Provide Solar Technology & Basic Computer Training

Here's an update on the school:

We are happy to report that over the Fall semester, the school saw a tremendous increase both in registered pupils and partners supporting the children and the school.   Thanks to your support and the support of other donors worldwide, we have been able to expand and continue to do so.  We also have on a continual basis young German volunteers that spend up to one year teaching in the school. 

The number of children has now increased from 50 to 100 children. Although our school is brand new in the area, the staff's mission is to ensure its promotion at all levels. Consequently, the school takes part in all the activities organized by local education authorities and major ones organized by other International structures.

We plan to add additional classroom space this year and welcome your support as we do this.  We are hoping that we will soon raise sufficient funds to construct a classroom that would serve as our computer lab.  This lab will help provide additional learning opportunities for both students and staff.  We welcome your support as we undertake this venture. 

A great time to make your next donation will be March 16th, Globalgiving Bonus Day.  On this day, GlobalGiving matches a percentage (30-50%) of each donation up until a certain donation amount.  This is a great way to maximize and make your donation go oven further.  Thanks for your support!

Dear GlobalGiving friends

It's a new season of expansion, progress and growth here in Cameroon.  We are excited about the progress!

School resumed on the 13th of September 2010. We are happy to report that during the summer months, 4 new classrooms and a playground were added to the school. This has increased our capacity and we look forward to growing even more next year.

This year, we were fortunate to have the support of volunteers and we appreciate their commitment. Our volunteers this year include Max from Germany, Felix from Germany, Adam from the USA and Jamie from Canada. They are helping us with teaching assignments. The advantage of having them with us is that they bring a diverse background, experience and skill sets that are helping us to invest significantly into the lives of the children in the school.

We are currently working on a video documentary on the school that we hope to share with you in the coming months.

Finally, we thank you all for your general support and donations. We sincerely hope you will continue to support this project.  It really offers tremendous change opportunities for the children in this community. Thank you so much!

Best wishes
