The vehicle chosen to disseminate the impact of the project and its vision was the profit-making concept of franchising. Within the first five years (1992-1997) 26 computer- learning centers were launched with average of 50-150 students enrolled in each location. By 1999, the number of children who benefited from the Cyber Kids curriculum exceeded 15,000, which is approximately equal to 20% of the country’s youth population (ages 6-15). During the same period, the organization trained and employed 186 young and talented university graduates, thus combating brain drain while simultaneously spreading the Cyber Kids philosophy and knowledge to many more spheres of social life. | The vehicle chosen to disseminate the impact of the project and its vision was the profit-making concept of franchising.
