PC para Chavos PC for Kids

In today's globalized and wired society certain ideas about "development" have become so socially ingrained that they appear to have moved 

beyond debate. In countries like ours, where on a daily basis broad segments of the population face poverty and lack of opportunity for improving their lives, we can discern formulas that have taken root in the social imagination of our region as ways for resolving these problems. One of these solutions is to seize upon education as an engine of social mobility, providing the only possibility for the bulk of the population to improve its living standards.

In this project we will provide rural and small cites’ kids the opportunity to improve their knowledge and their lives using computers and internet as an infinite information tool.  Every day more knowledge is published. The internet and networking is becoming a way of life for millions.

I think empowerment is the key for human development and computers and knowledge are nowadays key instruments for development.

The project was born by the enthusiastic initiative of June Oliver a Canadian lady who approached our Club Rotario de San Miguel de Allende; she offered the willingness and opportunity to get used computers from Canada to be shipped to San Miguel de Allende.

We need help to get computers from Canada and the USA and to ship them to San Miguel de Allende. Our intent is to start this program and bring more than 300 computers in the first year calendar.

Our Rotary president Dong Kurn Lee said  ..”We will Make Dreams Real by giving children hope and a chance at a future...” this is one way we can respond to this pledge. 

Please help us in anyway you can click here, hepl us to bring rural children and youngsters Mexico a chance!
