Project Report | Aug 21, 2017
The students received new computers!

By John Sparks | President, India Partners

Dear Friend,

I want to update you on the exciting things happening thanks to your generosity. Thank you for transforming youth with disabilities in India with computer training. I recently received an update from the computer center regarding all of the students enrolled in our computer program for people with disabilities.

The students are so grateful for your support, and none of this would be possible without you.

Thanks to a generous gift from an individual, we got a chance to purchase five new computers for the students at the school. Through another gift, we were able to update all the systems with a current version of Microsoft Office. These computers will provide up to date training for the youth, allowing them to enter the work force with a current skill set.  

You see it is people just like you that are making the change in the lives of these students.


We were blessed by two volunteers, they upgraded the software throughout the training institute, established a functioning network, and trained the students for the IT workforce, preparing them before they graduate.

Thank you for transforming the lives of people with disabilities in India through your generosity. Disabled students who join the training program enter with little hope and no self-confidence. But when they leave, they are trained to succeed and have the assurance they can do so. Seventy-five percent of the disabled students find a job soon after graduation.

I'm excited for what the future holds for these students and look forward to seeing more students gain computer training skills.

Sincerely,

John Sparks
