Empowering Communities Digitally
Free Digital Skills Training for Communities & Organisations
At EWD Foundation, we believe access to digital skills should not be a privilege, it should be a right.
That’s why we are launching Free Training on Request: an initiative that allows schools, communities, organisations, religious organizations, NGOs, and informal groups to request fully sponsored digital skills training at no cost.
If you have people who are eager to learn, we are ready to teach.
Who Can Request Free Training?
Our group is too small to make a big impact. We offer these sessions to ensure that our local organizations and residents aren’t left behind in an increasingly digital world.
Schools and educational institutions
Community groups and youth organisations
Churches and faith-based organisations
NGOs and non-profits
Small community clusters or associations
Organisations supporting women, youth, or underserved groups

- You submit a training request through our form
- We review your request and assess readiness and impact
