Subject: Haiti Solar power charging XO project (New Video)

The IIT student team working on Solar Powering the OLPC XO's in Haiti schools have created a great video. I just wanted to share it with you.  Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Hello fellow OLPC'er

Schools in Lascahobas, Haiti received XO laptops in 2009, when they had electric grid power. Unfortunately, the grid hasn't been functional since the devastating earthquake of Jan. 2010, and these schools and over 1,000 children with XO laptops, have had no means to charge them for over a year now.

A team of students from Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT) and I worked on a nice solar design and want to install their design to charge these XOs.  But this take funding and the IIT students have placed their project on Global Giving.  I would like to challege you to donate at least $10 to the project.

I just donated and you can do the same at:  http://www.globalgiving.org/projects/solar-transformation-for-haitian-education/

Thank you and best regards
