Computer brings ‘HOPE’ for Govt. Schools

(Inauguration of two computer labs by Dr. Abhishek Manu Singhvi, MP Rajya Sabha)

Dear Friends,

On 13th November 2010, Dr Abhishek Manu Singhvi (Member of Parliament Rajya Sabha) inaugurated the computer learning centers at two government secondary schools – Maderna Colony and Police Line in Jodhpur. Both the computer labs set up cost was funded by Member of Parliament Local Area Development funds. It was a big day for HOPE Worldwide – Rajasthan. We waited for this day for almost two years. Our staff efforts, hard work and partnership with two Jodhpur government schools finally brought “HOPE” for these school students and local youth.

Each fully equipped air conditioned computer lab has eleven computers - along with software, 4-in-1 printer and over one hundred interactive educational CDs. HOPE worldwide - India will teach computer and personality development skills to all the school students free of cost. These computer labs will directly benefit around 200 and 350 students at Police line and Maderna Govt. Schools respectively. At the same time local youth will also enjoy the use of the labs.

The HOPE staff, school staff and students were so excited and happy to see the computer labs inaugurated. All the students of the school are all excited to learn skills they otherwise could not have afforded.

Dr Abhishek Manu Singhvi said, “Education and health are two areas which can make the foundation of our country stronger. These centers will transform the lives of these children and build the future India.”

Mr. Premchand Sankla, District Education Officer said, “I know HOPE Worldwide for more then one year and there is no doubt the work the organization is doing in both government schools is effective in helping students.”
