Garala Foundation is an organization with a goal of establishing Children's Library in the Indian subcontinet. Please visit http://www.garala.org for more details.

We would like to have around 5 laptops fixed in the library for kids visiting the library and another 10 laptops for lending it out for usage at their homes for a short period of time (approximately one week).

This project will enhance the reach of OLPC to rural and semi-urban kids in India.
