CHRISTIAN MISSION OLPC

Introduction

Welcome to the Christian Mission OLPC Site. We are delighted you decided to stop by. Please browse around and ask questions if you require more information. We appreciate your help and support to make this life changing project a reality.

About Us

The Christian Mission OLPC Project - Making a Difference!

We are a grassroots "holistic" mission focused group of Christian believers engaged in utilizing our God given talents (SHAPE) to eradicate illiteracy and spiritual emptiness by educating the next generation and mobilizing our resources to spread the Word.

The Goal

To donate 100 XO computers to a mission school in Africa by December 2008. To accomplish this, we are requesting financial support or actual donations of XO computers.

Partnering with Local Churches and NGOs

To achieve our goal, we are open to partnering with local churches and non-profit organizations to make this happen. If you know of any such organization that may be interested, please let us know.

How to help

This project is a collaboratively organized undertaking, so the best way to get started is to just dive in and introduce yourself. We need support volunteers who can help us reach this goal through fund raising efforts and project administration, personal financial support or ideas to achieve these objectives.
