They were shipped last week from the US and nine days later we received them at SDV. They arrived by air to Kampala and a volunteer carried them to Sironko safely yesterday.
This is the first batch of the twenty recently donated laptops to reach us. We are quite excited to have them and are currently configuring them.
The process was also a lesson in shipping equipment to Uganda. We are encouraged by the speed with which the machines reached us. However, it was only possible thanks to a generous donation which covered the shipment costs.
Fifteen more remain in the US and we are exploring ways to bring them to Sironko.
Thank you to everyone who helped bring these laptops to us.
