How The Orphaned Starfish Foundation Helps 

 

The Orphaned Starfish funded the furnishing of eight computers, desks, a printer, projector and the teacher. The computer classes introduce the girls and adolescence to standard computer skills, allowing them to use the computers for their schoolwork, connect to the world through the internet. These computers will give these children the opportunity to gain employment that will help them provide for themselves and for many of them, thier children.
