It was in deed very commendable, as she and other orphans were able to show that within the short period of time, they have been able to learn some essential digital skills.

The high point of the ceremony was the presentation of a set of desktop computers to the orphanage.

The initiator of the orphanage gave the vote of thanks to SI4DEV and visible global charity foundation for the kind gesture and prayed for sustainability of the vision of both organizations.
