German organization provides financing for library |
|
Monday, 29 December 2008 |
Since the current school building just provides enough space for the computer class room, a second building is required to house a library for reading and self-paced learning. The German organization Stiftung Umverteilen provides the required funds for the construction of this building which will give our students more room to study. In the name of our students, the TCEC team would like to thank for this generous support. The preparations have already started and the construction of the library will soon begin. |

The Tadlo.net project team wishes you a Happy New Year!!! The development of the Tadlo.net project has progressed very well in 2007. We have built our own school building, installed the computer network and can now provide our students daily lessons with hands-on experience in the new classroom. More than 70 students regularly take advantage of the free education offered at the TCEC. This development was backed by the engagement of many people. We would like to thank all our supporters for their commitment. We are actively working on the further development of the TCEC. In 2008 we will first focus on employing a local teacher and on implementing the construction of our library. We are still looking for sponsors to cover the expenses. More information about the future development of the TCEC can be found here. Please contact us if you would like to get involved in the further development of the Tadlo.net project. |

Room to Read supports Tadlo.net |
|
Wednesday, 19 December 2007 |
The American organization Room to Read partners with local communities throughout the developing world to establish schools, libraries, and other educational infrastructure. Room to Read was established in Lao PDR in 2005. The TCEC is supported by Room to Read with English and Lao books. We are happy to receive these books and to be able to offer our students more learning material. We are currently working on the implementation of an own library in addition to our computer room. |

The Tadlo.net project still needs financial support for the maintenance and the future development of the TCEC. In order to simplify the process for donators, we are now offering the possibility to donate online via Paypal. If you would like to promote the activities at the TCEC, you can either sponsor certain sub-projects or make an unbound donation. Please have a look at the different ways in which you can get involved in the project. |
