Hello Everyone,
We are going to the airport to fly home from Cambodia tonight. We have more stories and projects to write about during our 11 weeks here and will send more updates when we get home. Thank you friends and donors for all of your support that makes the work that K.I.D.S. does possible.
Below is our latest post!!

Dear Friends,
We hope this finds you well. Supporting education is a pivotal part of K.I.D.S. and having access to technology is pivotal to education in this day and age. IT skills play an essential role in teaching, researching and learning.
In the past five years, we have visited high schools with as many as five to six thousand students and no computers; even though they have teachers trained to teach computer skills, the schools cannot afford them. Each year, with the support of KIDS donors, we purchase computers for schools and training programs. Now computer classes run daily, allowing hundreds of students to learn these essential skills.

During this trip, we have been able to purchase more computers for students at schools as well as computers for teachers so they can use them to prepare courses, do research, and keep attendance and marks. The teachers share the computers for different subject areas.
We also provide computer labs for after school training in more isolated rural and poor city slum areas.

It has been great to visit the schools and see everyone learning, and we know that these skills will help change their futures and give them more opportunities in their lives.
As always, we thank you for bringing technology to young people.
Wishing you and yours all the very best,
Adrianne and Rick
