Please help me raise finds to secure computers and internet tech
for the students's distance learning during this Covid-19 crisis.
My friend in work in a school in Turkey and I heard the story
how impoverished
the kid's family are and can't even afford a single computer.
I am raising $20,000 for electronic devices for school kids in
the village of Eastern Anatolia in Turkey. Due to the Covid (the
situation in Turkey is worsening and the actual situation is far
serious than we can expect), kids there are forced to stay at home
and do the online lessons rather than face to face teaching.
Many of these school kids are without computers or basic
internet access to support them in distance learning. Without these
tools, these children will not be able to join the classes, they
will be further marginalized and could slip behind in their learning schedule.
Most of the kids there are from low income families and they are
uncultured and don't realize how important education is to a primary
school kid.
Even their families are aware how important education is, but
they don’t have funds for buying the computer and thus support their
kids on distance learning.
With the quarantine, school is closed and so are the libraries,
the electronic tools to support their learning is far more important
than other needs. By providing a basic computer, we can help these
kids through these difficult times and keep their chance of learning alive.
I know most people here do have a certain economic ability. The
situation in the village I heard is way worse than WE could imagine.
It is one of the hardest hit areas in the nation.
In a time of uncertainty and isolation, this fund is a concrete
step you can take to make a difference for our community in the
another side of the world. Your generous and selfless donation will
strengthen ongoing efforts to provide a quality and equitable
education for the children in the another part of this world
Any kind of electronic tools donation will be much appreciated too: gofundmyschoolkids@gmail.com
Thank you for your time, everyone please stay safe, and bless your soul.
