Amber Shevin, USAAmber Shevin arrived Buea from the USA (via RSA) on Sunday July 4, 2010 to volunteer with HINT, specifically working with the School PCs Project.

Here’s what Amber says about herself:

I am currently working on my masters in International Relations and Sustainable Development at Chapman University and living in Southern California. I have traveled a fair amount around Southern Africa before but have never been to Cameroon or the West African region. I will be there from the beginning of July through the end of August. As for random facts, I love to surf and I horseback ride competitively around the US.

Amber was able to raised $4,100, enough to help set up 3 computer labs in 3 schools with 10 computers each making a total of 30 computers!! The school PCs Project facilities access to ICTs in school by proving up to 60% of the total cost of a complete computer lab with 10 computers.

Welcome Amber and thanks for being a HINT Hero. We look forward to working with you.
