20 computers, refurbished in our Edinburgh hub and then tested again locally on arrival.

Educational software in the form of Open Office and an e-library based on RACHEL which includes a wealth of resources. We are also using Kolibri as our learning management system and are working with our partners on the ground to align content to the curriculum.

Technical support from the local hub to set up the computer laboratory and then provide maintenance, repair and replacement services.

All computers at end of life are returned to the hub for recycling and are replaced with comparable machines.

Your sponsorship will be recognised with a set of photos of the completed computer laboratory that you have supported. On request we can also install a plaque in the classroom to commemorate your sponsorship.
