Review for COMPUTERS FOR GUATEMALA INC, Norwalk, CT, USA

Rating: 5 stars  


As an advisor to Computers for Guatemala, I have seen founder and president Don Livingston, devote his heart and soul to the ambitious project of providing modern technology to schools and libraries in Guatemala.
With modest financial resources, but a great deal of energy, enthusiasm and persistence, Don has enabled some 19,000 Mayan students to have access to computers for the first time. These recycled computers, donated by generous Americans, open the door to exciting educational and career opportunities for deprived youngsters. In addition, his efforts have led to the construction of high school. After spurring the local government to donate the land, his organization paid for the building materials, while parents and friends did most of the actual building.
As a resident of Darien, Ct, Don’s home town, I can vouch for Don’s integrity and commitment to improving the lives of Guatemala’s Mayan youngsters. Written by Martin Skala
