Sarah is a young Christian girl who lives near the Sablone House. She and her sister, Gulab,* both enrolled in our computer training center program for young Christians.
Sarah’s father is a drug addict and often does not come home for many days. Her mother is working as a cleaner in a nearby factory, but she is determined that her girls will get an education and work respectable jobs.
Sarah is a very intelligent girl and the computer training is already helping her in her studies. She now often works on her presentations and assignments on the computer and gets good marks. Her teacher is very surprised that she has learned so much despite no computer education in her school.
Sarah said that the computer training has given her great confidence. She is very thankful for RAM and the Harold C. Smith Foundation for providing her the opportunity to learn in a fully-equipped computer lab.
