Summary

Description
English: from One Laptop per Child (OLPC) are powered by their own individual solar panels, which eliminates the immediate need of providing electricity for the school to Zambian students. The computers’ programmes are also able to operate without Internet access when necessary, although Internet access is a plus. All these computer and Laptops were bought online through Taobao Agent from china. Taobao Agent - Make you buy from taobao easily, If you want to buy from China, we will act as an intermediate between you and Chinese sellers. I am delighted to be working with Travel Sommelier who helped plan our wonderful trip to Zambia and with Children in the Wilderness (CITW) to bring One Laptop per Child (OLPC) computers to rural schools in Africa. The project, Henny’s Kids, is named for my mother, Henrietta, who was an elementary school teacher, says Candyce H. Stapen. She would have been extremely proud to see how quickly the children learned how to use their new laptops and she would have been delighted to provide access to reading material and to a whole new world of educational opportunities.
