Laptops Donated to Wollo University and a Polytechnic in Addis Ababa, in Ethiopia
Educate Africa (EA) has recently delivered 73 laptops to Tegbaried Polytechnic College in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. This 80-year-old institution is known for training students in a variety of technical fields and providing strong hands-on experience. Serving nearly 1,800 students each year, the college plays a key role in developing skilled professionals.
We are especially excited to see several of the donated laptops already in use in classrooms and at the college’s newly established innovation and incubation center, where students are actively engaged in creative problem-solving and technology-driven projects.
Educate Africa also provided laptops to Wollo University, supporting the institution’s efforts to strengthen its digital learning resources. This contribution advanced the university’s commitment to expanding access to technology and improving the quality of education across its academic programs.
VISION
We envision an Africa where every student has access to the digital tools needed to succeed in a modern, technology-driven world. Today, limited exposure to computers remains one of the greatest barriers to improving computer literacy and the overall quality of education. Many families cannot afford personal computers, and schools often lack the resources to integrate technology into learning.
By equipping schools with computers, peripherals, and essential learning materials, we help ensure that young people gain early, meaningful exposure to digital education. This early access not only enriches students’ educational experiences but also strengthens the future workforce. Even those who enter the job market before completing higher education gain the foundational computer skills needed to contribute to their communities and to the economic development of participating African nations.
Our slogan, “The Future is Here,” reflects the urgency of bridging the digital divide and the opportunity to bring world-class education within reach for every student.
WHAT WE DO
EA is currently reaching out to schools in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, and will continue expanding its efforts to other cities in the country. With proven concepts and execution, EA will duplicate its mission to schools in other African nations. These schools are located within vibrant cities and suburbs with needed infrastructure and security to establish school computer labs. We help convert an existing classroom into a computer lab, provide computers & computer accessories, and set up a school-based computer network. Students get an early introduction to what should be a basic educational tool and a gateway to unlimited knowledge.
EA appreciates the continuous financial support from individuals and partners who are passionate about education and understand its power to transform lives.
