Dear Donor and GlobalGiving,
The computer school has been established and the school has trained over 250 girls. The training is still attracting a lot of girls who have never had the opportunity to access computers in their life. Our focus is to empower the girl child and ensure they are independent.
At the moment we have installed 23 Computers with all its accessories at the centre but we actually need more to enable the school to reach more beneficiaries. Considering the huge turnout amongst girls. The centre is purely free of charge with no cost attached for the girls. With the new intake, we have registered 185 girls and we have added entrepreneurship education into the training curriculum, which will enable these girls to have a mentality of establishing their own business upon completion of the course.
We are making tremendous efforts to look out for more support in order to enable these children to benefit from this service. The challenges lie on getting the required support in order to run the centre more effectively. The recent hike in fuel pump price has been a major issue as well. Another challenge at the moment is power, which has really been a bottleneck and we are working hard in order to surmount it.
We are still looking forward to support and hope it will be achieved shortly.
Thanks very much and looking forward to your continuous supports
