Investing in equipping schools of the Ethiopian
Kale Heywet Church to educate students in the digital age with
computers, screens, audio equipment, training and support. This
project will empower the teachers and enhance the learning potential
of the students to be the leaders of tomorrow, and to leave a
long-term impact on future
Assessment of Need
Less than 6% of High School seniors have achieved the necessary standards to pass university entrance exams. Computer technology will give all students from Kindergarten to High School the full range of government approved and supplemental resources for each course. Learning computer skills will improve academic standards and overall literacy levels.

For the first five years, we are prioritizing computers with downloaded curriculum in 4 high schools with 23 classrooms in 2024 and 35 senior primary schools (Grades 7-8) with 79 classrooms and e-Learning centers for the remaining four years starting 2025, 2026, 2027 and 2028 for Ethiopian Kale Heywet Church (EKHC) schools.
