In just a few years, CPJ has installed over 1,000 pieces of donated equipment in 100 schools in and around San Miguel de Allende. We recondition the equipment, place it, teach recipients how to use it and provide ongoing support. Our 60+ volunteers work in 50 communities in and around SMA. We work alongside 15 local NGOS that share our goals for the kids of Mexico. Meet a few of our customers:
..."Suzanne,
a high school senior, was born without arms. Her school will not let
her put
the keyboard and mouse on the floor. Now she has a
computer at home with the
mouse and keyboard on the floor. The next
step is to track down voice recognition
software in Spanish for her."
..."Rosaura is a college scholarship recipient.
Rosaura's mother has a third
grade
education and her dad made it to the fourth grade. They have no indoor plumbing.
Yet, Rosaura is maintaining a better than 9.0 grade
point average on a scale of ten.
She brings the laptop to
school every day."
...This teacher's English may not be perfect but her
message is right on:
"I'm very
grateful with
you ... when I show the encyclopedia they want to see
everything, all
my
kids want to use it, and this days they arrive very early in
the mornings
... now
they have the technology and the world in their hands,
it's going to change
and open
their mind, now they're
have more options to do in their lives." Read
