A group of ten Champlain students are going to volunteer at the Malayaka House orphanage in Entebbe, Uganda for three weeks this May (www.malayakahouse.com). The Malayaka House is home to 37 abandoned and orphaned children, aged 1 to 20. Students are currently trying to put together a computer lab so that the kids can have a place to learn to type, do their homework, and so on. There is a full list of other donation items needed below. The Malayaka House is a registered 501c3 non-profit organization. If you are willing to donate any old laptop computers (or printers, digital cameras, or other technology) that are still in working order but no longer being used please contact Maggie Melvin.
