Bridging the Digital Divide in Darjeeling

Dear Supporters,

THE MOUNTAINS ARE CALLING!

In the heart of the enchanting hills of Darjeeling lies untapped potential waiting to bloom. The youth find themselves trailing behind their urban counterparts in the world of computer and coding knowledge.

We're embarking on a mission close to our hearts, one that aims to bring the light of education to the rural corners of Darjeeling through the establishment of two Community Computer Learning Centers.

This endeavour is not just an educational initiative; it's a heartfelt dedication to giving back to our community, recognising the untapped potential within each youth, who despite their brilliance, lacks the crucial opportunities that urban children enjoy.

We firmly believe that talent knows no geography, and every young mind in Darjeeling deserves the chance to adapt to today's fast paced world, while maintaining peace of mind.

Imagine the joy on a child's face as they navigate the digital world, unlocking doors to knowledge and possibilities previously out of reach. In these remote areas, where the echo of opportunities seldom reaches, we aim to plant the seeds of change.

Our approach is innovative and inclusive, with lessons lasting an hour. Students, can delve into the realm of computers and coding from the comfort of their homes. The program extends beyond virtual boundaries, hosting offline boot camps and hackathons at regular intervals, fostering hands-on experiences and collaborative learning.

Your generous support of £1000 can help turn dreams into reality, opening doors to education, skills, and a brighter future for these deserving children. Let's together empower the youth of Darjeeling, bridging the gap and lighting the way to a world where every child has the chance to thrive.

The ultimate goal for these young minds is not just knowledge but tangible achievement. Through rigorous online tutoring, comprehensive study materials, and dedicated mentoring, we've curated a curriculum that culminates in a certificate in computer literacy. This certification opens pathways and equips the next generation with skills that extend far beyond the hills of Darjeeling.

Join us in this transformative journey and be a part of something truly special. Your contribution, no matter the size, is a step towards creating a legacy of education and empowerment.

Thank you for being the beacon of hope in the lives of these children.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Charlotte Baldock
