Greetings OLPC  NYC,

      April 21st Small Solutions Big Ideas is hosting an OLPC project and technology showcase event in New York City.  We have decided to focus this event on visibility for your OLPC projects in addition to featuring Kenya projects. Then we can all benefit from the skills and experience of OLPC NYC members as well.  

We want to share our enthusiasm and invite the many international organizations in New York, the Kenyan American Society who is joining with us in the event, and the many other internationals. See the attached event program.

 We need your assistance to make this happen.   Please contact us  to
1. Reserve a spot on the XO Sugar Demo table:   bring your application & XO, your photos and videos
2. Reserve time in in the video and slide show presentations.  Or you can talk for 2 minutes.
3. Attend our next planning conference call Thursdays 8 PM   (209) 647-1000   Access Code 409201#
