Transparency: report expenses and revenues Guanaba.Net, March 7 to July 8
August 4, 2008
The cost of operating the telecentre Guanaba.Net to be open 78 hours per week and provide community service is an average of 37.830 pesos per month. From the beginning it raises by selling services an average of 12.252 pesos per month. We offer many free services (Internet access to students, all training) and what they charge is well below the market price. It is then obvious that income does not cover current expenditures. If in 18 months we are still the single point of Internet access to 20 km to the round, it is because the social reality of the rural economy of these communities can not afford those costs. But how do you keep Guanaba.net if you spend more than it produces? . Costs are met: (a) the remainder of the fund that the company donated Microsoft to Taigüey for the project (b) what they pay for other projects of the Foundation for services (copies, Internet). And that .. that we are not counting the 100% volunteer work (not charged, nor have expenses covered) of several people (Vicky, Alexis and Yacine) and the efforts of all the Guan-team and members of the community. This is what keeps prices much cheaper than in the Cyber and work development training for meaningful use, aimed at key stakeholders (teachers, organizations, etc.) and beyond chat and copy and paste ..
Anyway, since the available fund is coming to an end, and we must seek solutions to keep open Guanaba.net. Better marketing, new content and training projects, improve content and services, diversification of activities of the team, and find new support ...
