I just got back from a mountain community in Haiti. Our church supports a
school that provides a elementary through high school education for 1000
students. Some of the students walk 1 to 2 hours each day to attend school
and get a meal of rice and beans.
On this trip we installed a wind generator to provide consistant electrical
power. On our return an opportuntiy presented itself to provide 20 laptops
from a company without a hard drive or software.
There is a Boy Scout that will purchase and install the hard drives and as a
part of his Eagle project but we need to find a means to install an operating
system.
I am clueless how best to proceed. Is there software, XP, Windows, etc...
that can be purchased or donated with the license agreements??? Any help to
point me in the right direction would be appreciated.
Our goal is to provide the childen of Delatte Haite an post secondary
education via internet instead of leaving their homes in the mountains and
having to live in Port au Prince. They currently have chalk boards and few
books. Internet is available and we will a group that is pursuing a way to
provide for the monthly fee. So this could be a reality.
Thanks for any advice that you can provide.
