I would like to take this time and thank all the people and all the groups who donated various sums of money to our computer lab project. It means the world to me to have this project completed. With your help and along with help from the U.K we were able to raise around $2,500 to start and complete the job with an incredible $1,600 coming from Nelson. The total exceeded my expectations tremendously as we were able to buy 6 computers and a printer with that money. I think i can speak on the schools behalf and say thank you for them aswell.
We got back from Accra late at night so we installed the computer early the next morning before school. The faces not only on the children but on the teachers was priceless and those faces reminded me why we were doing this. The children cannot stop talkin about the room and always hang around it. We are having a grand opening of the room on December 19th. At the opening the chief of the Town will come and commission the room, so that will be a fun and exciting opportunity. Computer classes will begin right away when school resumes on January 5th. Once again Thank you to everyone who contributed and i can assure you that your money went to a very, very good cause.
