Jean Colarusso and Dr. Marvin Threatt set up a computer lab at the Saint Kozito Minor Seminary for Boys. It is the only one of it's kind in Nigeria. Here, it's 500 students have access to the worldwide web and participate in a global education program.
Since there are no telephone lines serving this part of Nigeria, this computer lab must be operated via satellite, a complicated and expensive venture. Friends of the Poor provided the $7,500 to purchase the satellite dish for the computer lab.
