Computers are trivial to our work and way of life in many parts of the world. However, in rural parts of Guatemala this is just not the case.
Statistics show that roughly 22,920 public schools in Guatemala do not have access to a computer lab. This is significant because if children do not learn computer skills, they will be further behind in the marketplace of the future. It is important we teach children computer skills because it will help them compete for jobs when they grow up.
We have created 4 computer labs in different schools. We have installed 20 computers. It took us 28 days of physical labor to get the labs ready. We are excited to see this project come to fruition.
Majority of these students had never seen a computer. And now they get to take computer clases at least once a week.
