NEW LIFE  FOR OLD TECHNOLOGY .. wiLearn boosts edTech solutions
8. September 2023 | A.E.F. Ruben Primary School, Kenya
Rubens Primary faced the challenge of an outdated eLearning platform with over 200 ageing Android tablets at their school. The performance and app compatibility of the mobile learning devices donated by Profuturo in 2017 were increasingly hampering the learning process. wiLearn 4 Life was contacted for advise and a great solution was found to salvage old equipment and breathe new life into the technology at the brink of obsolescence. By combining the wiLearn offline platform with the Profuturo equipment the old gadgets can again provide the interactive lessons via the browser at the touch of the screen.
Our collaboration to extend the education library will continue. Full  Assessment  Report here...

KUWINDA YOUTH . KA SOBA

SELF-MADE LIBRARY UNITES YOUTH


Kris Kiarie and his team Ka Soba (stay sober) have a story of true transformation to tell. Once criminal, addicted and a burden to society he experienced God's healing of mind, body and soul during a rehab time away from the streets of Nairobi. Returning to his hometown Kuwinda after his rehabilitation he has been on a mission ever since - giving youngster in the slum a direction in life, being their to support youth and foster them to develop their talents for the good of society. The Kuwinda community library was Kris's answer to keep children out of harms way and prevent addiction to glue or alcohol. He founded the "Ka Soba" community group of youth and parents to build a place where youth can be, meet, learn, play and receive a listening ear.  Sam Mbogo, our librarian friend from the Marist University supported Kris to get started with the wiLearn wiFi library to  improve literacy and learning skills among the Kuwinda youth.   
This community has thrived on the donated iPads and the wiFi library ever since. The equipment is used daily in a well organised environment. We are proud to be part of this project.
Sam Mbogo is about to launch another 5 school communities in Kajiado district and we are looking forward to funding support for these life changing projects.

RELOCATION . DANDORA

STREET CHILDREN NEED A HOME

St.Benedict Community Center (SBCC) has adopted Smart Learning in March 2020.  Since then numerous homeless streetchildren have passed through the center, receiving love and care, a warm meal and digitally supported primary education. Rune and Mary are two examples who have moved on and are a shining example among their peers in secondary school.
The situation with the school venue has become precarious in October last year, when the landlord announced plans to sell the plot and evict SBCC from the premises. With the help of Swiss sponsors wiLearn facilitated to buy a 100 m2 plot of land around Dandora to care for the homeless children. We are still short of 3500 CHF to make final payment for the plot.
Land title transfer is almost complete, so our wiLearn team visited the new plot togehter with an architect. We discussed the plans of SBCC to develop the plot asap to continue the caretaking for the over 160 school-age children. SBCC seeks urgent support to plan, temporary relocation and construction of the new center. An estimated 90'000 USD is needed to commence the first two floors of a mulitstory care center with the potential to add 3 more floors as funds are available.
