Summary
Having to climb a tree for making a call or have enough internet signal to send a message, walk more than two hours to a hill or ride kilometers in a motorcycle to reach the nearest village and get three lines of phone signal that allows internet connection is what most rural youths and children must do during COVID-19 to access education, information, and opportunities. We aim to provide rural youths with a connectivity KIT with energy and internet access and essential IT equipment.#CloseTheGap
