Reachup!

My names are jane nyokabi mwaura, am a reachup intern.My project to the community is to expand on the subject of HIV/AIDS and drugs campaign because in the community I live in drugs are killing young people.
The following is the Reachup! goal.
To empower the youth with knowledge and skills,and make them leaders then send them back to their communites,where they become agents of change.

In this program technology will be of great use to the communities once they are taught about it.
Most of them run small businesses,and keeping records of lets say, sales and stock are a challenge.
An application like excel will be of great use to these business people.

  1. Hi Jane,

    Your project sounds very ambitious and like something you are passionate about. How do you think you will use technology to best bring this campaign to your community? Can you give us some examples?

    Also, I love your definition of ReachUp! It is such an exciting program. Excel will definitely be important! Can you think of any other technologies that we have discussed that will be of use to the ReachUp! Participants?

    Thanks,
    Ginny, J.J., Jason

    Power point will also be very useful especially if any of the participants will want to secure some funding.They can use it to present the project to a micro finance officer.-Gladys
