Donate an XO laptop to a child in a developing nation

One learning child. One connected child. One laptop at a time., One Laptop Per Child

"The mission of One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) is to empower the children of developing countries to learn by providing one connected laptop to every school-age child. In order to accomplish our goal, we need people who believe in what we’re doing and want to help make education for the world’s children a priority, not a privilege. Between November 12 and November 26, OLPC is offering a Give One Get One program in the United States and Canada. During this time, you can donate the revolutionary XO laptop to a child in a developing nation, and also receive one for the child in your life in recognition of your contribution."

Editor's 12 Nov note: I just bought two (i.e. donated one). You should too.

Editor's 26 Nov update: This program has been extended to 31 December 2007.
