400 COMPUTERS ARRIVE IN KUMBO IN 2ND SHIPMENT


Following our DUNGRI Computer for Schools project, with aid of 200 computers from Cathay Pacific HK and 200 computers from Caritas HK, we received some sponsorship from GIFT HK and partial custom reduction from Cameroon government for this shipment.

We spent 3 weeks at customs procedures and finally we completed the custom procedures and then moved to Kumbo, a 20 hours over night trip.
We arrived Kumbo town our main office in Cameroon at 5pm. We were received by many youths from around who helped us offload the computers into our office. Also included were some suits, radios, office chairs from Crossroads Foundation HK.

Our technicians worked over night so that we started the next day distributing the computers to schools. We have more then 70 schools who have heard about our computer project and have applied. We are running short of stock, we hope we can get some more donations for next shipment so that we can help more schools in Cameroon. This is a country where 45 students = 1 computer.

We like to thank Cathay Pacific Airlines HK and all our partners who have been supporting our Computer for school shipments to enable us assist more needy people in Cameroon.
