SMUM Computer Girls

John and I volunteer a few hours a week at Studio 17, the grade school homework and computer lab program of Santa Maria Urban Ministry (SMUM). SMUM provides basic services in the inner city of San Jose, CA: both short-term needs such as food, clothing and transportation, and long-term transformation through education, counseling, after-school and seasonal programs.

Last week, John showed the girls who came for Studio 17 the Apple Photo Booth software on his Mac laptop. They were delighted. Here are the girls having fun with John and Padre Lorenzo:

:) Very interesting way to "engage" and get kids interested in technology.
