Digital skills unlock global opportunities.
Currently, we have 4,000 students from 10 schools across rural Kenya. We are selecting our next 100 schools in Kenya, to prepare an additional 40,000 students.
Rural Africans lack opportunities to make a living.
There are more remote jobs available online than local jobs available anywhere. TechLit students learn fundamental digital skills that will unlock global opportunities.

Empower Kids in Africa with Digital Skills
It costs about $50 for us to get a donated computer into a rural classroom. Once the classroom is set up, donations will help struggling schools pay local educators to supervise our classes.

Because of your $50 monthly donation, we can deploy 12 more laptops to enable 240 more students every year.
