Tech Corps Wisconsin,
Inc. is pleased to announce the latest effort in its continued support
of children in the state and specifically within the Southeast Wisconsin
area with the announcement of a project for Second Missionary Baptist
Church.
"We are helping the school with this project by supplying
twenty complete donated computer systems, a network server, UPS and
a laser printer refurbished by our group, to be placed into a computer
lab. We will also fully network wire the lab and connect it to the
Internet" said Michael Pitsch, State Coordinator for Tech Corps
Wisconsin, Inc. October 28, is the target date for the installation
of the computers to be used for after school programs at the Lathrop
Avenue church.
The computers will be used for teaching reading, word processing, teaching keyboarding, and Internet research as well as for other curricular purposes.
This project is a
continued experiment in re-defining how education is delivered to
our children, wherever they are, to better prepare them to meet the
challenges of their futures. The collaborative nature of the project
includes a number of public and private businesses throughout SE Wisconsin
who provided the donations and the volunteers who are completing the
work.
"We are pleased to have been asked to participate in this
venture to help make a difference in the futures of our children,"
said Pitsch.
