New Computers for EAST

With great joy I received an email a short time ago. The email from Kirk Spain of Africa’s Hope told that he had found a donor who was willing to help EAST with the first three phases of our technology plan.
EAST desperately needs to develop the technology on the campus. Administrators and faculty didn’t have computers in the offices, the computer lab was inadequate, and we didn’t have computers for the library. We had submitted a request to Africa’s Hope detailing our desire to see that each administrator and faculty member had a computer in their office that was networked and that we would have one computer for every 20 students on campus in the labs and library.
This was a realistic goal in today’s world, but it was a lofty goal in contrast to where we were at EAST.
But, we have not because we ask not, so we asked. Then I received the email informing us that a donor was willing to provide $36,000 for the 20 computers for the administration, faculty and lab that would be networked and internet accessible. This is an answer to prayer and a the beginning of the fulfillment of the vision God put in my heart for EAST.
During the September—November 2005 term the donation became a reality.
Praise God for speaking to the heart of this donor. Thank you to this donor for responding.
