Thanks for showing your interest in the Wikipedia for Schools project. I recently asked the team leaders to send me the reports so that I can compile a report of the whole project, so expect a financial report & an ordinary report by next week, latest.

But briefly:

I've attached a doc that describes what the WfS project is all about. We successfully implemented it in Mombasa, Nyeri & Kakamega and what we learnt is that we require a more localized version of the offline wikipedia, as opposed to the one we were using that was based on the British curriculum. I am currently liaising with the Foundation to create us a custom-made version that will suit us. 

So if we get the funds and the above-mentioned offline wikipedia, we'll be able to resume with the project. 

In what ways is your club willing to assist us?

--Abbas.
