The Shalimar Learning Center received a donation worth $10,000 Friday--one it can put to use immediately.
AON Consulting, a human resources organization, donated 10 Pentium computers to the center. Each is worth $1,000.
“Our goal is to do things for the community,” said Bruce Caldwell, senior vice president and office manager of AON Consulting. “The kids are the future.”
The computers will help the center with its mission to build children’s self-esteem by providing a safe and secure place for homework, tutoring and educational programs, said Peter DeSoto, the center’s new executive director.
