The Rootcode Foundation opened a computer lab at Mawathgama Kanishta Vidyalaya
on August 4, 2024. This was the second school adopted by the Rootcode Foundation,
which continues its mission to empower underprivileged children through technology
education.
The Rootcode Foundation, the impact arm of Rootcode, is dedicated to transforming
underprivileged schools through the power of technology education. Each year, the
Foundation adopts a new school, committing to a year-long partnership that goes
beyond traditional support. Rootcode employees actively engage with students monthly,
conducting hands-on workshops and delivering technology lessons designed to inspire
and educate.
Central to this mission is the establishment of a fully equipped computer
lab at each adopted school, providing students with access to modern technology and
practical learning opportunities. This initiative underscores Rootcode's commitment to
empowering the next generation with the skills and knowledge essential for their future
success.
This newly established facility, equipped with state-of-the-art computers, offers students
vital access to the technology essential for their educational growth. Rootcode
employees were deeply involved in the building of the lab, dedicating a weekend to
painting, cleaning, and refurbishing the space, creating a warm and inviting environment
for the students.
Rootcode believes in the transformative power of technology and is committed to
empowering underprivileged students in Sri Lanka with the skills needed to change their
lives. Beyond weekend visits to teach technology and building computer labs, this
initiative includes providing scholarships, training teachers, and ensuring the school's
long-term sustainability in IT even after the project concludes. Through these efforts,
Rootcode aims to create a lasting impact on the students and the communities they
come from.
