e-TRI recognizes that schools and communities need adequate equipment, cost-effective internet access, and a place to access computers and the internet to realize their full potential. Thanks to the generosity of donors, we equip schools and ICT Centers with computers, printers, PDAs, internet access, camcorders, digital cameras and other important ICT equipment.

Our ICT Centers, which are developing in select communities, are for use by the community at large. They are designed to be centers of learning where students, teachers, and community members come together to use computers, access the internet, and gain basic skills and knowledge about technology operations and concepts. Once built, centers are completely sustainable as they are funded by a nominal pay-per-user fee. Students and educators will have a set number of hours per month for subsidized usage and can use the centers to facilitate their studies, conduct research, or teach parents and relatives how to use computers and access the internet.
