The One Laptop Per Child initiative is an awesome undertaking, and one we support wholeheartedly.

Any program that has a mission like “To provide children around the world with new opportunities to explore, experiment and express themselves” is something we can definitely get behind, which is why back in November, we signed up to “Give a laptop” to a child in the third-world, and as a bonus, we got one for ourselves.

We have a three-year old in the house who started playing with his new OLPC this past weekend, and while he’s still a little young for it, we’re confident that he’ll grow into this “child’s laptop” about the time his Dad outgrows it. If you have a few dollars to spare, we’d highly recommend supporting this cause with your donation, as we can tell the thought and care that went into designing the OLPC will set this program up for success well into the future.
