I. PbP SC Announces Its
Partnership with DISKovery Center for
2004.
| |
PbP SC is delighted to announce our
partner for 2004, the DISKovery Center at
the Little Tokyo Service Center Community
Development Corporation (LTSC-CDC) in downtown
Los Angeles. The DISKovery Center was
started in 1999 to provide affordable computer
access and training to low–income members of the
Little Tokyo community and the wider Los Angeles
area. Because senior citizens are often
left behind in our digital society, the
DISKovery Center offers classes and support that
takes into account their special learning
needs. The Center also serves as a
resource for job seekers and young people
seeking to improve their computer skills.
The non-profit
computer center is open to all members of the
community. Services offered include:
classes ranging from basic level “Newbies” to
digital imaging and webpage development, free
public access hours, classes in both English and
Japanese, and computer training for high school
students children and seniors.
There are many
volunteer opportunities with the DISKovery
Center, ranging from teaching computer classes,
working with local community groups, web design,
helping with DISKovery events, providing
technical assistance, creating a business plan,
and establishing links with sponsors.
We need volunteers! Please check
our calendar
for upcoming events.
To
launch our 2004 partnership with the DISKovery
Center, PbP SC will have an official kick-off
event in February 2004. Stay tuned for
more details!
For more information about volunteering
