Key Information

We remain deeply concerned about the impact of COVID-associated school closures on children. Without computers, smartphones, or the internet, teachers and students in the remote, impoverished communities we serve don’t have the option of taking classes online or access to other forms of remote learning. That’s forced us to work closely with our local partners and local educational departments to innovate. We’re also looking ahead to the day students go back to school and life feels familiar again.
