"Despite the documented evidence of chess historian H.J.R. Murray, I have always thought that chess was invented by a goddess." George Koltanowski, from Women in Chess, Players of the Modern Game

Computer Labs for Kids: Los Angeles February 6, 2010
Here are the details about the upcoming LA Computer Labs for Kids workshop. Twenty kids in foster care, between the ages of 6 and 8, will receive their very own laptop to keep upon successful completion of the workshop. It's a great way to spend an afternoon. I participated in a workshop late last year in Chicago where we helped introduce 28 kids to their laptops and the beginner's chess program generously donated by GM Susan Polgar's Foundation. Please consider volunteering if you are in the area or making a donation to the Computer Labs for Kids Foundation.
Location:
United Care
3699 Crenshaw Blvd
Los Angeles, CA 90016 US
When:
Saturday, February 6, 1:30PM to 5:00PM
Phone: 626-408-2390
Hello everyone,
Computer Labs for Kids is looking for volunteers!
We are a 501c3 charity organization which provides a class about laptops to children in foster care. At the end of each course, the children receive their very own laptop. This is very fun and exciting course, and we need your help in order to accomplish it. Please visit our website to see our latest project in Chicago, so you will have an idea of what we do. Click here to see our website.
Right now we are looking for 20 Volunteers Technical Assistants to help foster children one-on-one at our class on February 6th from 1:30 pm to 5:00 pm. Volunteers will need to arrive at 1:30 pm and also to complete our Volunteer Training Course which can be done online. Click here to start the course.
Volunteer Technical Assistant Requirements: Basic computing skills, love for children and a desire to help them.
Thank you very much!
Shira
