Iman Fears Nothing

SPCPA OLPC Initiative

1) Our primary goal is to establish a lending library at my high school, Saint Paul Conservatory (SPCPA). In my community, an overwhelming amount of young middle and high school students I would meet at school or at the local public library are suffering in school because their family could not afford to keep a computer at home. For the lending library, we would require ten laptops. The school would provide me with tech officials to maintain the renting computers and a base to store and lend them from. I also have potential “lending library” clients from the school administration as well. These laptops could be rented and used by low-income students from my school in need of a computer as well as low-income students from my community in need of a computer. Students would have to write a detailed application to use the laptop and would receive it for no more than one week at a time.

2) We have obtained the laptops from OLPC through a remote connection and are now engaging in lending the computers to other students for 1 week at a time.
