XO Giving
You can help support OLPC's mission by contributing time and knowledge or
donating money, or by participating in our annual giving campaign below.
Give 1, Get 1
Give 1, Get 1 2008
The 2008 Give 1, Get 1 campaign ran between November 17 and December 31, 2008. You can still visit laptop.org.org/xo to donate a laptop, but you won't receive one.
- See G1G1 2008 for more about the program.
Give 1, Get 1 2007
The 2007 Give 1, Get 1 program (or "G1G1") concluded on 31 December 2007. G1G1 2007 has archival info on the 2007 program.
During the program, participants who donated USD $399 would cover the cost of one laptop to be distributed by OLPC to one of its least-developed partner countries, and would get 1 to keep, for themselves or for a child in their lives. OLPC also has a static Official FAQ on this program.
Media
Various media for G1G1 campaigns:
- Nigerian girl carrying a laptop on her head (at right)
- There are a number of formats and layouts of that print
- 2008 reprise of the above: as a pdf
- Also showed up on the limited-run t-shirts
User communities
Users of the XO have formed many user groups (some even before the 2007 units arrived). See Regional groups.
