[Internships] OLPC

[Adriana Gurdian]

Dear OLPC Academy,

I have a few questions concerning your partnership with Nicaragua. For a
few years now I have been going to Nicaragua during the summers to
volunteer at Fabretto Nica Hope schools. Nica Hope has many school
throughout Nicaragua and I continuously noticed that they lack in materials
and technology. There is only so much Nica Hope can do and most of the
materials come from generous donators. The children have a thirst for
knowledge but the lack of materials has becomes a barrier.
My question is if OLPC has any offices in Nicaragua? I know I am too young
to be part of the internship but I would love to find a way to help expand
OLPC so that the Nica Hope kids can also get the opportunity of receiving
these laptops. Is there anything I can do on my part to make this happen?
Maybe fund-raise some money so Nica Hope schools can get laptops. I have a
experience in fundraising for The American Cancer Society and I am
currently president of the Business Department in my high school.
Therefore, I would like to apply these skills and help OLPC in any way
possible.
Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,
Adriana Gurdian
