Even the smallest contribution from you towards this specific campaign will have a huge impact on RDDC and our goal to create an IT Center in Rwanda.
Since 2012, RDDC has been managing Basic Computer Skills for street children in Rwanda, Africa. These are children who were forced onto the streets because of poverty, domestic abuse, or parental rejection. At our IT Center, children touch a computer for the first time, learn the alphabet to type their names, access news through Google, and send emails to the USA.
Please visit our Global Giving Campaign at: http://www.globalgiving.org/projects/rddc-digital-divide/
Please consider posting a link to our campaign on your social media profiles!
We need to reach ,000 by September 30th!
