I am Dhandu, colleague of Harish. I recently visited India. When I was talking to My cousin brother, he works as Teacher in Govt high school in a remote village in Northern Tamilnadu called Sempalli, closest town is called Gudiyattam around 160 Kms from Bangalore and 155 Kms from Chennai.

This school has computer lab without computer. There are some teachers are trained to teach computer. So my cousin asked me some help to the village kids. These kids are from very poor families and they do not even saw the computer other than Movie or television.

I request you, friends if you have some old computer in working condition where you are just going to dump it in some corner. You can donate these computers to these poor village kids. I can make arrangements to pick from Bangalore or Chennai.

Please let me know, You can reach me at dhands_s@yahoo.com.

Setting up a computer lab for a govt school

I recently came across an opportunity that is about kickstarting a computer lab at a small government school. My friend, Dhandu, will be shortly posting more details about the school, the actual need and the various ways in which we can help.

If you have some old computers at home or work, that you are not using and can be of help to the school kids, then I request you to donate them to the school rather than throwing it or selling it for peanuts.

The school can make great use of it. Thanks a lot .. Those wishing to know more or get in touch about how to make the contribution ..
