AS part of its continuous programme to enhance information technology in the education system, Food for the Poor (Guyana) Incorporated (FFTP) donated a computer kit to the Gibson Primary School of Lancaster Village, East Coast of Demerara on Thursday, October 24, 2013.
Headmistress of the school, Michelle Barton, complimented FFTP for the work the organisation is executing in its efforts to improve information technology in schools, and added that she was very grateful for the donation of the kit.
Making reference to the School Feeding Programme conducted under the stewardship of Patricia Sam, Chairperson of the Ann’s Grove Committee, Ms Barton said attendance at school had improved tremendously because of this initiative.
Committees Manager of FFTP, Ms Natasha Baburam, advised the students to care the equipment and use it wisely. She said FFTP would be willing to assist the school as far as it possibly can, but this is dependent on the availability of items.
