Abans presents laptops to deserving students

Abans completed the first stage of the CSR initiative 'From Your Laptop to Their Future' by presenting Toshiba laptops to 20 deserving students.

The presentations were made by Abans Group, Chairperson Aban Pestonjee and Director P.N. Pestonjee at the Abans main showroom in Kollupitiya recently.

In March, Abans offered Toshiba laptop computers to students islandwide in the age group 14-21. The students had to write to Abans describing how the laptop would help them in their education. The first batch of 20 students were selected and presented with laptops.

This is the first phase of their ambitious CSR project and Abans will present laptops to more students in stages.

Only a few students in Sri Lanka have the privilege of on-line access to various educational information which seriously affects their ability to improve information technology skills.

Abans launched 'From Your Laptop to Their Future' to empower bright young minds who will be future leaders.

Computer knowledge stretches far beyond the student-stage of one's life. Basic IT knowledge and application is now a prerequisite for almost any job and a must to build a successful career.
