Community Centers in Lusaka: What do they offer? Cancel Title is required

As of 5.3.18, I sponsor 13 in Lusaka.  As I understand it, there are three community centers in Lusaka: Kanyama, Chibolya and George. I've searched and searched and Googled my fannie off, I can not find which centers provide what.  Do all three have a library?  Do all three have a computer lab?  Where do I find a description of each Lusaka Community Center's offerings? Can all of my 13 go to any CI community center or are they restricted to one?  -- meaning if "their" community center does not have a computer lab -- if I pay the cost of transport, can I get them to the center with a computer lab for CI computer instruction? I fully realize I just asked a lot of pesky questions..please accept my apologies if this information is on the CI website and I'm just not slick enough to find it...

I' be interested to hear from CI about this! My understanding is that they all have a library with some computers (sadly they had been stolen from the chibolya library during a break in at the time of our visit, but I believe they were then replaced). My phone sure likes to make what I'm typing invisible to me until I've hit post ahhh

Hey ladies! Let me get back with you next week on this.

Ummm...I'm not slick either!  LOL.  All three centers in Lusaka have libraries and computer centers.  They each also have a playground, medical and dental clinics, a pharmacy, nutritional rehab rooms and of course, meeting rooms. 

Now, the formal computer skills programs are for those kids 12+. They have to sign-up to take the class, which is instruction in the use of basic applications and computer programs such as: Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint; Email; Internet Navigation; and Internet Safety andSecurity. 

We have a partnership with Intel, so we use an Intel-developed curriculum in the computer skills courses that can be adapted to the context and need of each location.

In addition to the formal computer skills program, all sponsored children and youth have access to the computer centers for learning and school-related activities, such as online research, homework and digital literacy and numeracy programs.

Each kid would use the community center in their community and since all three in Lusaka have the same offerings, there wouldn't be any need to travel to another community to use a center. 

You're a gem, Debbie. Thank you for that important, detailed information.  I encourage my sponsored Zambian youths to embrace and expand their education and increase their work skills. Now I have the specifics I need to write better letters. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
