TINFA’s mission is to empower teachers to bring 21st century skills to kids in underserved areas of developing countries.
Our club has partnered with TINFA over the past nine years on multiple projects to provide computer equipment, teacher training and student scholarships.
“At the meeting, we plan to connect with a 4th grade class of our partner school San Isidro, Olintepeque District, in Guatemala. We will get an update on the TINFA program, as well as hear a summary of our joint efforts to date. “
