Henk Boshoff was recently elected as a new director of Laptops to Lesotho. Henk is a tech company owner from Pretoria, South Africa. He is a strong supporter of the Laptops to Lesotho philosophy and approach.
Henk and his engineers will be getting involved in getting the servers at Kokobe and Nohana up and running. He will also work with training those involved with using the servers. This alone has the potential to vastly improve the effectiveness of the project by making computer use at the schools easier and more productive.
In addition, he is very interested in seeing L2L expand. His advice will be invaluable in choosing the best hardware and software options. He has worked with the Linux open source operating system, Edubuntu, and would handle installation of it and any educational software to the computers.
Affordable internet access at the schools is something he would like to see happen. Another interest is finding ways to develop entrepreneurial endeavors with community members and students using laptops and internet communications to establish local businesses.
