Montgomery County Public Schools, MD, U.S.A.

Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) donated more then 3,000 computers in the last few years. “People are very excited. The vast majority of our students had never seen computers before or had hands-on experience’, Liberian Minister of Education Joseph Korto told Superintendent Jerry D. Weast and other administrators during his Feb. 15, 2007 visit to the superintendent's office. Liberia received its first shipment of about 350 surplus computers from MCPS in late 2003 after Korto, then president of the Liberian Development Foundation, made contact with MCPS' Steve Silvious, supervisor of field installation. MCPS sent another 1,000 computers in 2005 and 2,000 computers in 2006 (see The Bullettin, Vol. 49, No. 25 for more details). Click here to see a list of some of the recipients of donated computers.
