I'm fundraising for Power for the People's Window to the World project.
Digital technologies have spread rapidly in much of the world, with many of us depending on them to work, to educate our young and to reach out to friends and family. Yet, an estimated 3.9B, or 50% of the global population (source: N50 Project), do not have digital connectivity. Without computer skills, children living in poverty in Kenya are often unable to continue on to high levels of grade school education or university.
The project will equip pupils with the skills and knowledge they need to thrive in education and later, in work. It will improve teacher's confidence in use of digital technologies and embedding digital into their teaching curriculum. It will foster cross-cultural learning and understanding by creating opportunities to connect to other Windows to the World projects already completed in Uganda and Kenya, and with schools in the UK.
Your support will make a tremendous difference: £5 could fund library books for the expanded library. £10 could provide a month's wifi connectivity for the school. £75 could provide one day's training on basics of internet connectivity and navigating devices. £150 could provide a refurbished laptop and mouse to the school.
