First Technology Center in the Boca Costa Region

The Boca Costa region of Guatemala is about to experience a facelift. RWI has plans to build the first technology center in the region there but commencement of the project is possible only with your financial support! Our financial donors play a pivotal role in helping us spread our wings and reach indigenous communities. RWI is currently holding a corporate outreach to recruit corporations that will contribute a combined total of $40,800 to build and name our new technology center. Here is the breakdown:

• $3,800 to furnish the lab and offices
• $10,000 for 15 new computers, 1 printer and networking equipment
• $25,000 for construction costs
• $2,000 to build the last-mile Internet connectivity and one year of ISP

If you are aware of corporations that potentially would be interested in helping us service the Boca Costa communities through our proposed technology center, then reach out to us! RWI already has a blueprint of the building design. We anticipate securing appropriate funding and are primed to put down the first brick!
