Boon Lim studied game programming and later became a university lecturer for the subject. After years in higher education, he began searching for something more meaningful.

"Teaching in Dignity opened my eyes to the vast digital divide and the urgent need for digital literacy in underserved communities."

The students at Dignity are less privileged compared to the college students Boon Lim taught. Their digital knowledge and exposure to technology are limited, which makes it harder for them to comprehend certain concepts. This prompted Boon Lim to teach in more visual, hands-on ways.

For Boon Lim, education is no longer just about passing on knowledge. It’s about creating access and opening doors.

At Dignity, he’s found a space where his skills in tech can make a real difference.
