In the charity's own words
We enter partnerships with not-for-profit organizations, in Greece, who work with vulnerable children, such as orphanages and after-school community centres. At their premises, we offer classes in digital skills, by qualified teachers, whom we employ for this purpose. We provide the educational material and any necessary equipment, including laptops and robotics kits, all at our cost.
