BRIEF HISTORY
Internet for Humanity is located in Victoria, BC. We have 11 years experience establishing and supporting reliable low-cost internet browsing and email systems in isolated and impoverished regions of the world; first with HF-Radios, now with cell-phone internet data. In Uganda, we have installed 17 systems since 2011; 13 are active (7 Farmer Co-ops, 5 Schools) impacting over 25,000 farmers and students. Through trial & error, we have developed an effective mentorship model which we now desire to implement on a National Scale, more than doubling the present number of centers.
