Help us make the summer vacations count!

We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to you for your continued support of our Digital Literacy Project.  Humana People to People India’s Digital Literacy project aims to provide computer based education to primary & middle school children from socially and economically backward migrant families from some of Jaipur's urban slums. It also provides computer skills training to youth to increase their employability and ensure that youth is not under trained and ill-prepared to enter the workforce.

Academies for Working Children aim to bridge the digital divide and increase access to technology of children. Some of the positive outcomes linked to the use of technology in these schools are:

  • Improvement in students' academic performance 
  • Improvement in the quality of education as the teachers and school staff have better tools for teaching
  • Increase in economic opportunities as computer skills are required in most professions 

Through your donations you are a playing a major role in helping us address the "Digital Divide". 

Since the month of May brings the two month summer vacations for children, we would request you to help us ensure that 2 new computer labs with 20 new computers are made available to the children and youth to ensure that summer vacations are optimally utilized.

Note from the Project Leader

"We thank you very much for providing the funds that help us provide computer education to children who need it. We request you to continue supporting us so we can continue assisting the future generation with hands-on training that improves their quality of life”– Ashok Kumar, Project Leader, AWC, Malviya Nagar
