Amazon Launches Buy One Get One XO Laptop Campaign
Amazon has launched the second version of the popular XO Laptop campaign. The what campaign? Basically, this:
- Buy an award-winning laptop for $199, which is donated directly to a child in the developing world; or
- Buy two for $399, and keep one.
Why a laptop? Well, the very impressive mission statement says it all:
To create educational opportunities for the world’s poorest children by providing each child with a rugged, low-cost, low-power, connected laptop with content and software designed for collaborative, joyful, self-empowered learning. When children have access to this type of tool they get engaged in their own education. They learn, share, create, and collaborate. They become connected to each other, to the world and to a brighter future.
