[OLPC-Philippines] New to eKindling

[Cherry Withers]

Hi Vincent! Welcome to eKindling! I'm so glad that we'll soon have another
Californian on our team. I'm copying Kevin Asuncion on this email as he is
an LA resident (I'm in NorCal). Hope to meet you in person after you're all
settled in Cali. Thinking we can also do an event with the OLPC-SF
volunteers if you and Kevin get the chance to be out here.

Aloha everyone,

My name is Vincent Zabala and I am currently living in Oahu, Hawaii.  I've
been teaching math for 4 years at Waianae High School (part of the Teach for
America program). I'll be moving to Los Angeles, California in July and hope
to attend law school next year.  As a Filipino-American, I’ve also had a
renewed interest in learning more about the history and culture of the
Philippines.

My passion in life is to help others and contribute to the greater good of
society in some way.  I’ve always believed that education is at the heart of
influencing positive change. I’m excited about the opportunity to volunteer
with eKindling because of the prospects of helping those underserved
children and exposing them to technology in this global society.

It would be my pleasure to contribute and help support eKindling’s mission.
I would be interested in volunteering to go to Lubang and help integrate the
technology into their curriculum.  Also, it would be exciting to work with
developers to organize content into learning games/activities.  On the
business side, I’m open to working with fundraising efforts.   I’m pretty
flexible in working on other projects or initiatives as well.

Thank you for your time and sending you much aloha from the islands!

Best,

Vince
