If you want to donate your own laptop, consider joining others in donating to a local school or group where kids can learn together, in a well-supported environment. OLPC encourages individuals to initiate their own regional community groups,

OLPC's grassroots mailing list is a great place to find others who will work with you here.

Some groups are soliciting donated XOs for special projects. Please add your group under the appropriate category.

OLPC can redeploy your Get One XO to one of our projects in a Developing Country.

The Berkley family in Iowa---- We have 2 little girls' we are adopting and had a biological daughter with Angelman syndrome. Sadly our bio daughter passed away in 2006 from Meningitis. Children with Angelman syndrome can not speak so are unable to communicate without some sort of program working for them. We are looking for a user friendly compute for the girls' like the XO. Thank you in advance for any consideration in a donation of an XO as raising children with special needs can be very costly and communication devices are not something easy to get through insurance as they are not " medically necessary". Thanks you again. Cindy jcberkley94@msn.com
