ForeignAID Ratings administered the 2004 YouthWorx program, which trained high-potential
children of single parents and disadvantaged youth in computer hardware,
software and networking.
YouthWorx student Susan Njenga enjoys learning
computer skills at the University of Nairobi. "I can now handle a
computer well. I can seek sponsorship from the internet. I can apply for
job opportunities through the email and I can stay in touch with big
people in the [ICT] industry."
