Donation Online education tools.
Many students are impacted by this new style of learning because they do not have the required tools for online classes. In an effort to assist the community in this dire time, the Rotary Club of St. Martin Sunrise kicked off a project with the objective of providing students in need with appropriate learning tools required to follow classes successfully. Family & friends from around the world were approached and asked for a contribution towards the project, some chose to contribute funds while others contributed devices.
TelElm who is an avid supporter of the club and very active in the community, was approached and without hesitation donated 10 one-year free internet service vouchers. The club has been partnering with Motorworld for the past seven years on a back to school project where students are supplied with a backpack filled with school supplies, due to the current learning process 19 tablets were donated instead.
Thus far the club was able to collect enough funds to purchase 42 laptops and tablets which along with the internet service vouchers courtesy of TelElm were distributed to various elementary and secondary schools.
One internet service voucher was supplied to the Rupert Maynard Community Center. Students can go to the community center with their device to access internet service and follow classes.
The Rotary Club of St. Martin Sunrise would like to give special recognition to TelEm and Motorworld for their generous contribution and continued support. These establishments should be commended for including the well-being of the community as part of their corporate social responsibility. The club is also grateful for all the individuals and organizations who contributed. The project is ongoing, persons interested in donating to the cause can contact Fundraising chair, Mr. Prakash (Peter) Dialani at +7121-5229170 or email petergemsland@gmail.com
