[http://www.earthtreasury.org/ Earth Treasury] (currently redirects back here) has no corporate connection with OLPC, the maker of the $100 Laptop. OLPC just lets us use their Wiki.--[[User:Mokurai|Mokurai]] 02:51, 3 June 2007 (EDT)

This page is a place-holder until Earth Treasury can create its own Web site.

==Extending Give One Get On==

OLPC ended [[G1G1]] on December 31, 2007. Earth Treasury proposes to create a similar program, buying from OLPC's [[GiveMany]] program in quantity. We are talking to funding people.

==Vision==

The end of poverty through communication and sustainable commerce

[[Earth Treasury Mission|Mission]]

[[Economics of XO]]

==Programs==

* Link [[Sister Schools|schools]] around the world
* Teach children to do business together.
* Teach the genuine free market, not the nonsense in which corporations get to go freely into any country, but people don't.
* Telemedicine
* Demonstrate the XO to anybody who should get involved with OLPC.
* Anyone can participate. We have [[101 Things To Do]].

==Volunteers==

* We need writers, speakers, publicists, a graphic artist, lobbyists, and others. You can suggest other tasks, particularly if you are volunteering to do them.
* We'll get a mailing list together as soon as there are enough of us to justify it. Done.
* Web site with t-shirts, an Amazon link, and donations through Paypal and other means.
* We need to move from a volunteer association to a non-profit corporation at some point. In process with lawyers.
* We should put on a conference. I have signed on as a board member of [http://www.wireafrica.org/ WIRE AFRICA]. We have a conference in December 2007.
* I'm going to make a page that makes is absolutely brainless to lobby our government officials. Oh wait, I did that. Here it is:
