[AfrICANN-discuss] Re: [AFRINIC-announce] Winners of the Second Edition of the FIRE Programme Grants - 2014

[Mwendwa Kivuva]

This is a great initiative by AFRINIC.

We hope it will spur innovation and creative minds, and that was the major
objective of FIRE. I hope this projects will improve the communities where
they are targeted.

Congrats to all
