With immediate response, our students received the 100 tablets needed for the 2026 school year within just two weeks of our appeal! Those donation made possible to create tomorrow's professionals - benefiting Maya youth with few other prospects in their remote underserved region of western Guatemala. This gift of edcuation is putting technology directly into the hands of young people at the Maya Jaguar Private Technical Institute, where meaningful employment begins. These computer tablets introduce our students to technology not available in local government schools, giving them a real competitive edge. Additionally, it helps them become proficient in computer maintenance and repair. This is a practical skill they can use to start their own businesses or secure gainful employment. When students graduate, they can take their tablets with them for continued use. This fundraiser is an annual event to equip students with new tablets at the beginning of each school year (January - October).
