In talking with Jal and Alana, we became aware of the lack of technology in the schools and library here on Bequia. The government of St. Vincent and Grenadines are heavily involved in building a new airport on St. Vincent, so much of everything else is put off as that project sucks up a lot of money.
The cost of technology here is very high relative to the income levels of most islanders, so most people just don't use computers. Jal and Alana want to change that.
We've decided to help.
We agreed to seek out unused, older technology that may be collecting dust in homes, companies, or where ever, accumulate what is available, and ship it to BQ for Jal and Alana to distribute as appropriate.
If you (or anyone you know) have any unused computers, iPads, kindles, etc... and wish to donate them, let us know and we will make arrangements. Contact us by email: kevin-AT-sheamail.net or alicia-AT-sheamail.net
