Agape in Action is partnering with Project Macfrica to install a computer lab at the Agape in Action High School in Kamukuywa. Project Macfrica will donate, ship and install 20 used Mac computers to the school, they will also provide training to the local teachers. Below is a message from Matt Scobel, Founder of Project Macfrica:
“What would happen if the children of Africa were given access to the same education technology that the kids in North America? In February 2011, Agape in Action will be teaming up with Project Macfrica to establish a Macintosh computer lab at the high school in Kamakuya. Part of Project Macfrica’s vision is to “level the technology and educational playing field for the children of Africa”. The new lab will be the second all-mac computer lab established in Kenya.
Project Macfrica computer labs feature a variety of used Macs donated by businesses or individuals for use in Africa. They are pre-loaded with educational software, managed remotely by Apple Certified Support Professionals, and connected to other computer labs and donors back in North America. These labs offer incredible educational opportunities for the students and help connect the children and educators of Africa.
You can make a donation directly to the computer lab in Kamakuya through Agape in Action. Tax receipts will be issued for donations over $20.”
