Computers needed at the
LVRC Youth Center!!
Due to the success of the Open Day, the Lady Volta Resource Centre for youth has been filled with people. More than 40 young people participate in the centre’s activities and make good use of its resources – especially the computer room – on a daily basis. With the increased demand for more computers, software and games related to reproductive and sexual health and adolescence, Village Exchange International Ghana is actively seeking donations, either of computers or of funds to purchase computers, for the Lady Volta Resource Centre.
To donate, offer suggestions or ask for more information about the Lady Volta Resource Centre please contact us at:
