[Internships] OLPC for Haiti - Thomassique

[Bryan Stuart]

Hi Patrick,

Thanks for your e-mail. There are a few ways to get involved in Haiti. You
can either apply for the Internship program (see the link below) or suggest
your own project. If you'd like to discuss this second option, I'm happy to
do so over e-mail or phone, but it's probably best not to use the mailing
list (so we don't overrun people's inboxes).

Best,

Bryan
