FAWE Girls Had a Successful Year of Computer Training

Thanks to your support, the FAWE students are receiving the vital computer training that they need.  Proficiency in computers in schools, workplaces and in the society as a whole is an absolute requirement for success in today's technology-aided society. Exposing kids especially girls at a younger age plays a very vital role as it helps them to have the basics in computing and also giving them the opportunity to overcome the challenge of computer illiteracy at a very young age.

Cameroon Students are getting Computer Training

Your support helped the students at Bitame Lucia School (BLIS) receive some computer training.   Many of these children had never seen a computer before the training.  Computer Training is an ongoing need for children in and around the community as it helps to eradicate poverty by enhancing education, broadening options and opening the door to new opportunities.

More Students are Receiving Computer Training

Your ongoing support is currently helping 30 students get the computer training they need.  As technology becomes a mainstay in the private and public sectors, most decent paying jobs require proficiency in computers and thanks to your ongoing support the computer lab is continuing to help more youths become computer proficient.

Your Support is Helping to Developing Proficiency in PowerPoint - An In-Demand Job Skill

April 27 was the 56th Anniversary of Sierra Leone's Independence.  To celebrate the day, the ladies in the Creating Pathways Computer Lab were challenged to create different designs in PowerPoint commemorating the day. 

The ladies enjoyed the exercise and  expressed their creativity and had fun in the process. The colorful slides reflected the colors of the national flag of Sierra Leone - green, white and blue.

We are Creating Lasting Change

Thank you so much for faithfully supporting this project over the past 7 years or so.  

Over the years, we have provided basic computer training to hundreds of girls at this school. This was possible because of YOUR faithful support.
