It is a great pleasure for us to keep our donors, partners and friends posted on our latest achievements. Thanks to the donations of all our supporters through the online fundraising platform –Globalgiving- we have been able to impact another group of people with disabilities to learn the use and adoption of ICT.
The starring group is a bit different this time. We trained 20 senior nuns in the basic use of ICT. It turns out that they asked for our help because their Community –Franciscan Community- needed to learn how to use a special platform developed to promote communication among them and to provide training.
The nuns we trained had difficulties to see and to move. They take care of other seniors in a house for the elderly called Casa Madre Bernarda. They learned how to use the e-mail. How to browse on the internet and how to read the online magazines that their community sends.
We are very glad to contribute with the improvement of these women’s lives. With this training they were not only advancing as persons but also as a non-for-profit organization. We strongly believe that ICT is a great way to generate inclusion within society. Please share this report with your family and friends so they get to know the amazing things that can be achieved with the support of people like you.
