We are kindly asking for your support in this endeavor. Your assistance, whether financial, technical, or expertise-based, will greatly contribute to our mission of delivering comprehensive, quality education to our students.

Justification and Use Case:
With the rapid advancement of technology and the shift towards digital learning, an online education platform like Moodle offers many benefits. It provides flexibility and accessibility, allowing students to learn at their own pace, anytime and anywhere. For educators, it provides an efficient way to manage courses, track student progress, and engage with students. This project aligns with our commitment to providing holistic education, catering to the intellectual, moral, and spiritual growth of our students. Once completed this system could be adapted for other schools and to bring learning and education to remote areas or allow continuity of education to students during disasters.
