Activity Description: Orphan IT is a capacity building non profit organisation, created to provide an effective and results driven consultancy service to telecentres and ICT groups in developing nations. The group's primary focus areas include training, mentorship, jobs, sustainability, and profitability. Orphan IT hires young, underprivileged, or orphaned people trained in community technology centers like GLOW Centres as computer specialists and programmers to provide IT services for online businesses. Revenues earned go to sustain the centers financially and pay salaries (as much as five to six times the local minimum wage) to the students. Orphan IT currently operates out of GLOW Centres in Manila, Philippines and Chennai, India and is planning to expand.

Hello, I would like to inquire regarding the organization and what are the projects / programs that you are initiating for the youth of the Philippines. Further, I would like to ask where we could find your office in Manila? Your immediate response will be deeply appreciated. Thank you very much. Ronnie
