Equip Libraries
One technology center
Rural Education and Development, Inc.
Problem
Rural Nepal—home to 90 percent of the country’s 27 million population—was late coming to the technology dance. Mountainous terrain and unreliable electricity are among the impediments. In READ libraries where a computer center—often just a few machines—does exist, computer training classes have been organized to develop technology skills among members of the community. More libraries await the hardware and software needed to launch their own computer centers.
The Gift
Join READ Global in its quest to change the world—one country, one village, one individual at a time. Your contribution will outfit one of READ Global’s library community centers with a technology hub that includes three computers and basic software for word processing, spreadsheets and bookkeeping. Your gift of a technology center for a rural Nepal READ library will be provided by READ Global.
