April is wrapping up quickly which means that our trip to Mexico is drawing closer and closer! Our trip dates are June 18 – July 2, 2016 and we are getting everything ready to set up two new labs in Oaxaca City at the following schools:
- Escuela Primaria Vespertina “Benito Juárez”, Santa Cruz Xoxocotlán, Oaxaca, México
- José Vasconcelos school in Santa Cruz Xoxocotlán, Oaxaca, México
We are setting up the Benito Juárez elementary school with donated laptops. Please contact us at donations@kidsoncomputers.org if you have working laptops with at least 1 GB RAM that need a new home. We are also looking for other peripherals such as keyboards and mice. To see the full list of what we need, head over here.
We are excited to get these labs set up and welcome volunteers to join us. There are also other ways you can help:
- Join us. We invite volunteers to join us on site so if you are looking to roll up your sleeves and help us get the labs up and running, let us know! We also offer travel sponsorship for volunteers who would like to join us on our trip. Learn how to apply here.
- Donate cash. We are a small 501(c)(3) non-profit organization fueled by volunteers and donations. Every dollar counts! Rest assured that your contributions will go towards providing children with technology access which otherwise they would not have had. To make a donation, head over here or contact us for for information.
We appreciate the support from our volunteers and donors – we live by it. We’ve had an awesome start to the year so far with new partnerships, exposure, collaborations, and donations. Let’s keep the ball rolling!
