Digital divide is becoming more and more an element of division and separation between those people who have access to the new technologies and those who haven’t.

Knowing this STFoundation is trying to give its personal contribution to bridge this gap.

In April 2006 STF has signed an agreement with Fr Ray Foundation, a Thai NGO based in Pattaya whose main scope is to manage an orphanage for street children and a center for disabled people.
