One Tech Kit. One student. A lifetime of digital opportunity.
The Dofitek Student Tech Kit puts a real laptop, a tablet, a wireless mouse and a protective bag directly in the hands of a Haitian student — so learning continues at school, at home, and beyond. A package partner organizations can fund and Dofitek implements on the ground.
An entire generation learning without their own device
In Haiti, the average household shares a single smartphone — often the parent's work phone. Personal computers are a rarity in homes, and most students reach their final year of high school without ever owning a learning device of their own. When school closes, learning stops.
Compared to 90%+ in OECD countries by the same age.
Usually controlled by a working parent — not available for homework.
Without a lab or kit, students never practice the skills modern work requires.
Including remote roles Haitian youth could realistically access — if equipped.

A personal device is the new pencil
A school lab teaches a student for an hour a week. A personal Tech Kit teaches them every evening, every weekend, every school break — for the rest of their school career. In the age of AI, that compounding daily practice is what separates a fluent digital learner from a child left behind.
With their own laptop and tablet, a Haitian student can talk to an AI tutor in Creole and French, rewrite an essay, debug their first lines of Python, prepare a science presentation, or study for university entrance exams — at home, with no teacher present, at no extra cost to anyone.
Free AI assistants now explain math, languages, science, history — patiently, in any language. A Tech Kit unlocks all of it for one student.
Homework, research, reading, creative projects no longer depend on a teacher being in the room. The school day becomes a school life.
Typing, writing, design, basic coding, online certifications, freelance platforms — every one of these requires a personal device first.
Why Tech Kits change a student's trajectory
In Haiti, many students share a single household phone — or have no device at all. A Tech Kit removes that barrier. It transforms a child from a passive observer of technology into an active user: writing, researching, coding, designing, and preparing for higher education and the modern job market.
Students learn keyboards, files, the internet and productivity tools — core skills schools rarely have time to teach.
Tech Kits open the door to free educational platforms, video lessons, and digital libraries.
Homework, projects, and self-study no longer stop when the school day ends.
Siblings and parents benefit too, multiplying the reach of every kit deployed.
Every component has a purpose
Role: The student's main workstation for writing, research, learning apps, and online classes.
Impact: Lets students complete homework, run educational software, and develop real digital literacy — even at home.
Role: A lightweight reading and study device for textbooks, videos, and interactive lessons.
Impact: Gives access to digital books and learning content where printed material is scarce or expensive.
Role: Comfortable, precise input for younger learners who are still developing fine motor and computer skills.
Impact: Reduces strain and helps students work faster and more accurately on the laptop.
Role: Padded, school-ready bag for safe transport between home and school.
Impact: Protects the equipment so it continues to serve the student for years.
One kit. One student. Every hour outside the classroom.
A Tech Kit is not a gadget — it is the moment a Haitian child stops borrowing the future and starts owning it. The impact reaches far beyond the student.
Self-paced learning becomes possible: AI tutors, video lessons, digital books, practice exercises — all available the moment curiosity strikes, not only when the bell rings.
Younger siblings learn alongside. Parents use it for paperwork, banking, and communication. One kit lifts the digital literacy of an entire family.
Email, video calls with relatives in the diaspora, online courses, news, languages. A kit ends the isolation that holds so many Haitian students back.
Older students can take on freelance writing, design, translation or data work — real income that often exceeds local entry-level wages.
Teachers can assign digital homework, send resources, give individualized feedback. The classroom finally extends past 3 p.m.
From writing application essays to preparing for entrance exams to applying for scholarships abroad — every step now requires a personal device. A Tech Kit makes those steps possible.
US$299 that quietly rewrites a child's life
Studies of 1:1 student-device programs — from Maine to Uruguay's Plan Ceibal, Peru's OLPC and Kenya's DigiSchool — consistently find higher literacy, stronger digital skills, better exam outcomes, and dramatically higher rates of further education. The pattern is global. The cost, here, is one Tech Kit.
At an estimated US$299 per student, a partner organization doesn't just fund hardware. It delivers 5+ years of daily learning for one student, a halo of literacy for their siblings and parents, and a realistic path into higher education or the global digital economy. Scale across 10, 30, or 100 kits and a single partnership reshapes the trajectory of an entire school.
The Student Tech Kit — estimated US$299 per student
One kit. One student. A lifetime of new possibilities. A school technology package partners fund and Dofitek implements.
