One Laptop per Child (OLPC) - 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. It’s not a laptop project. It’s an education project In 2002, MIT Professor Nicholas Negroponte experienced first-hand how connected laptops transformed the lives of children and their families in a remote Cambodian village. A seed was planted: If every child in the world had access to a computer, what potential could be unlocked? What problems could be solved? These questions eventually led to the foundation of One Laptop per Child, and the creation of the XO laptop. OLPC’s mission is to provide a means for learning, self-expression, and exploration to the nearly two billion children of the developing world with little or no access to education. While children are by nature eager for knowledge, many countries have insufficient resources to devote to education—sometimes less than $20 per year per child (compared to an average of $7,500 in the United States). By giving children their very own connected XO laptop, we are giving them a window to the outside world, access to vast amounts of information, a way to connect with each other, and a springboard into their future. And we’re also helping these countries develop an essential resource—educated, empowered children.

National Park Foundation - The ongoing Gulf oil spill poses an historic challenge to the national parks in the Gulf region, and beyond. The National Park Foundation, official charity of America's national parks, has launched the National Parks Disaster Recovery Fund. The public outreach and fundraising campaign will support the National Park Service's response to the Gulf oil spill, and will also serve to create lasting capacity to help national parks recover from future natural and man-made disasters. No funds raised will be used to mitigate the liability of any responsible parties for the injuries caused by the oil spill. To learn more about ways you can help visit www.nationalparks.org or www.helpparks.org.
