Our mission is to harness the potential that information technologies have to make a positive impact on the lives of children, their families and their communities. We are a not-for-profit organisation that understands the potential computers and the internet have to improve the lives of people by connecting less fortunate communities to a world of ideas, health and welfare services, entrepreneurial activities, and knowledge exchange.

We aim to help bridge the digital divide by providing computers and connecting them to the internet for transformative and sustainable educational programs. These technologies will also help developing vocational and life-long learning for children and adults, open avenues for entrepreneurial opportunities, and allow access to important information relating to health, wellbeing and economic prosperity.

Providing technology goes hand-in-hand with community capacity building to nurture a knowledge base that will allow the community to sustain computer facilities and enlarge the range of choices that can be made locally regarding new programs. We are building technical skills, community leadership and governance, and experience in the formulation of policies, teacher training and digital content development.

Our beneficiaries are communities in low socioeconomic circumstances, particularly those in developing countries, where we are invited to find ways that computer technologies can bring long-term and sustainable benefits. We are starting in Nepal because it remains one of the world’s poorest countries.

We also identify outstanding local students and students who are struggling to afford schooling to foster their education by providing student scholarships.

We provide pathways for volunteers to spend time in the communities we work with to assist with teaching, development of teacher resources, training in the use of digital technologies, and to help with setting up and maintaining computer facilities.
