A solar-powered room. 10 refurbished laptops. Satellite internet. A trained local facilitator. For $5,000 AUD — one hub. 300+ lives changed.
An Education Hub is a purpose-converted room in an existing school or community building — fitted with solar panels, a battery system, 10 refurbished laptops, and satellite internet. It runs entirely off-grid, making it accessible to villages with no reliable electricity supply.
During school hours, students use the hub for digital literacy, coding basics, and national curriculum support. In the evenings and on weekends, it opens to adults — particularly women and young mothers — for vocational training, business skills, and government services access.
Each hub is managed by a trained local facilitator — a community member who receives a six-week training program covering technical maintenance, curriculum delivery, and community governance. The facilitator is paid by the local community, not HHF, from day one.
This model ensures the hub doesn't disappear when HHF's involvement ends. The community owns the asset, runs the program, and decides its future. We build the infrastructure; they build the knowledge.
HHF operates with full financial transparency. Here's exactly what one Hub costs, line by line — no hidden fees, no overhead extraction.
We're building this network deliberately — one hub at a time, ensuring each is fully operational and community-governed before we build the next.
Local schools and community leaders identify the right building and nominate a hub facilitator candidate.
Our Australian sponsor funds the solar system, laptops, internet, and facilitator training — end to end.
A six-week program covers technical maintenance, basic curriculum delivery, and community governance.
Students arrive during school hours. The evening program opens to adults — especially women — from week one.
From year 2, the community funds its own running costs. HHF provides annual check-ins and technical backup.
Each hub is designed for a 10+ year lifespan. The community is the institution, not the donor.
$5,000 AUD. One Hub. 300+ learners. Your name on the plaque.
A Hub that outlasts any of us.
