If you are thinking of upgrading/changing your PC or laptop, the 3C's are appealing for any computers, printers etc which you no longer require, to distribute to the poorer local schools and other children's organisations in the local Calis/Fethiye area.
Today, some members of the committee visited Kargi village school to present them with a computer system which had kindly been donated by forum member Cenk of Interturk Estates. The school were thrilled and the computer will be put to good use. A big thanks Cenk
Kargi is one of several schools that the Calis Children's Charity is helping from the proceeds raised during the 2010 Fundraising year. We have already provided the school with a ceiling mounted projector for use with computer and screen which is already being put to good use and are hoping to order books plus other much needed equipment in the very near future.
This is one of four projectors that we have bought in the last month at a cost of 3,600 TL, others havng been donated to Nif Arpacik village school and Vali Recei Gureli school in Fethiye. The fourth is still to be allocated.
We have several other children's projects under consideraton at the moment and details and photographs will be published in the next few weeks as they reach completion. We have already committed to funding 10 bursaries to help poorer students attend university who otherwise would be unable to afford to do so. This is the third year that we have provided these bursaries at a cost of 9,000 TL each year.
But back to the computer equipment, we have had a request for computers from a local rehabilitation centre attended by both mentally and physically handcapped children as well as from several village schools so if anyone has an old computer, laptop or printer gathering dust please contact us and let us know and we will come and collect it from you and make sure it finds a good home.
Thank you
None of the above would be possible without your support.
