Gracis to those who have donated!
We are still looking for funds for three more computers. The three we have acquired are already making a difference. Our Computer Literacy program is targeted at the primary school children that attend our daily Learning Center. However, their teachers, each with the appropriate Associates Degree, have NOT had the opportunity to date to become Computer Literate. The result? They are taking classes in the Computer Lab, too!
Guatemala’s rural education system is substandard, and not enough computers are available to ensure students – and future teachers – are computer literate. Can you imagine navigating today’s world without access to a computer? Grupo Cajolá’s goal is to make sure our members – teachers and students alike– are computer literate so they may have a chance at earning a living in a professional career.
