Thanks to everyone who donated to this project! We are closing the project because we have acquired enough computers to fill our new Computer Lab. During the course of fund raising Grupo Cajolá moved its headquarters and the space for the new Computer Lab allows just six computers.
However, the donations allow us to provide Computer Literacy training with two classes each week for 10 children in fifth or sixth grades. Computer Literacy is so important to their future educational success. In addition, their teachers use the computers to gain literacy as well as begin to use them in their work.
Guatemala's public education system is woefully inadequate, particularly in the area of computer literacy. Your donations have helped compensate for that weakness and will help 10 students -- and 10 teachers -- take advantage at least of rudimentary beneifts of technology.
