One of our primary projects is bringing educational materials to the disadvantaged and needy children in remote villages of Africa. The provisioning of the 'RACHEL' system (Remote Area Community Hotspot for Education and Learning) for these children is one of our primary activities.
RACHEL provides a battery powered WiFi hotspot containing quality educational content, and tablet computers for the children to access them. This allows children who have no internet service to have access to thousands of educational documents for their early education. RACHEL can wirelessly deliver free digital educational content to nearby tablets, laptops, or smartphones for students in rural villages and townships with no internet or data plans available.

One of many informal preschools in the Shantytown in Windhoek, Africa
While we will continue to work through Rotary and write grants for education projects in Africa and the Philippines, we plan to expand effort to area which do not fit into the strict Rotary mandate. Some of these effort will include opportunities which require rapid response. Some will be trial efforts to develop evidence for Rotary Grant funding.
We have visited preschools in informal settlements (Shantytowns) outside of Windhoek. People come to the city to seek employment and a better life. We find an entrepreneurial spirit in these settlements. There are individuals who set up preschools for children for parents who go to work in the city. We would like to help these preschools provide the best opportunities for these children.
