On the 28th of January 2007 ROC Amsterdam ICT dept. of the school donated 10 PCs (+accessories) and 1 printer (View Gallery) for an upcoming ICT project in Paramaribo, Suriname. This PC4KIDS Project would be the first one of 3 PC4KIDS Projects of SIVA4KIDS.org in South America where a similar project is also in plan to be realized in Colombia for 642 children by  the support of a global ICT Company, which is also located in Amsterdam. The SIVA4KIDS foundation has realized similar projects for tsunami affected school children in Sri Lanka (2005) and in India (2006).

The PC4KIDS Project in Suriname is planned to be realized in coming June 2007. This is a very unique project since the project coordinator is not only a volunteer of SIVA4KIDS.org but also the ICT Teacher of the ROC Amsterdam School and the same volunteer went to the same basic school in Paramaribo during his childhood. Therefore the foundation is very enthusiastic about announcing another optimistic project which is coordinated by the Dutch Hindustan ICT teacher, Ashok Joerawan, who was born in Suriname. Siva for Kids Foundation is responsible for the transportation and monitoring of the progress of this project, which we expect to support the ICT development of the 196 children in the basic school in Paramaribo.

We are also very proud to announce when this project has been completed then SIVA4KIDS.org will be reaching a unique target of helping 1.000 children in 2 continents (Asia and South America) and 3 different third world countries like India, Sri Lanka and Suriname. All this was possible only because of the hardwork and positive actions from our volunteers and sponsors so far.

SIVA4KIDS.org is hoping to find companies which will be interested in supporting and sponsoring this project  in order to help the children of Suriname in Summer. If you are interested in joining this project as a volunteer, support or sponsoring this project, please email: info@siva4kids.org for more details. Thank you very much.
