Why we fight

Following from my post here about the OLPC Give One Get One program (check it out at http://www.amazon.com/xo), I received this email today about a new ad that the OLPC foundation has put together:

Hello, and happy Thanksgiving from OLPC.

Help us change the world, one email at a time.

Our new commercial “Zimi” began airing on November 17th. Watch Zimi’s story to see how the life of a 7-year-old African girl can be changed by the XO:

While giving thanks this weekend for all that we have, share this story with friends and family and let them know about the opportunity to help children learn in the developing world.

And don’t forget to be part of the equation for change:

Sincerely,

Founder, One Laptop per Child

Consider giving the gift of knowledge.
