   Jordan - Zerka

School Computer Lab

$30,550

The grant budget will be used to purchase computers and computer-related equipment and furniture necessary to establish a computer laboratory for the Zerka School South located in Zerka, Jordan. The Zerka School South is a kindergarden through 10th grade school with a current enrollment of 287 students. Parents of children attending the school are low income wage earners with a strong desire to provide their children with the highest quality education possible. School revenue from tuition is not sufficient to fund the current operating expenses and the financial shortfall is funded by the local Catholic Diocese.
