Juza Africa hasn't added a story.
In a collaborative partnership between SHINA and Juza Africa, 50 tablets will be provided to a new school in Tanzania for use in the library and in the classroom. The tablets will not only promote learning for the students but will also be used by teachers in order to bolster the curriculum and increase class engagement. The Juza Digital Library will be equipped on the tablets, enabling students to interactively learn with a wide array of resources that would otherwise not be available.
We need your help to provide tablets and other, related educational materials for students of the ITIKA Education Center. The ITIKA Educational Center is a pro-poor focused initiative in the rural district of Missenyi in northwest Tanzania. It will allow children that grow up in the district to have access to technology, small class sizes, and a well-stocked library. The region has a lack of textbooks in classrooms, a lack of qualified teachers, and overpopulated classrooms- sometimes with over 150 students in a small classroom that have to learn in shifts. Further, the Center strives to serve all aspects of the community, through vocational training and seminars.
Juza Africa has been working tirelessly to improve literacy and quality of education in more than 18 schools throughout Kenya, shaping the lives of over 18,000 students from disadvantaged communities within rural villages in Kenya. The tablets allow students access to the Juza Education Digital Library to include e-books and other comprehension quizzes, that the children would otherwise not have access to. Students in schools with Juza Digital Library show a great improvement on tests of IQ, emotional intelligence, and creativity. With such great success in Kenya, Juza is now expanding into Tanzania, through a partnership with the non-profit SHINA, Inc. SHINA, Inc., operates primarily in rural villages in Tanzania, areas often overlooked by donor’s concentration in urban areas. Through grass-roots organizations, SHINA aims to empower women, youth, and children through community outreach to promote cultural, educational, and economic development.
Only 150 dollars will provide a tablet with the Juza Digital Library, giving students access to a higher level of education for countless years to come. 200 dollars will provide not only a tablet stocked with learning material, but will also cover all shipping and handling costs to place the tablet directly into the hands of a student in Tanzania. 100% of proceeds will be used in the purchase of tablets and access to the Juza Digital Library and every donation will be matched until we reach our goal of $3,000. Even the smallest donation will help in providing a student with access to a new world of educational tools, books, and learning platforms. Donate today to change a child’s life and give them access to the gift of a better education!
