[Olpc-uk] OLPC UK Fundraising campaign

[Peter Robinson]

Hi Enric,

As far as I'm aware OLPC isn't incorporated in the UK either as a charity or
otherwise. Its more a lose collection of people who have an interest in the
OLPC and associated devices. There may be another charity on this list that
is interested in assisting though.

Regards,
Peter

Good evening,

> Any other ideas to make this campaign a success?
