One Laptop Per Child (OLPC), a non-profit foundation, yesterday announced that it was donating 2,800 XO-Laptops to students as a message of hope in relation to the 20th commemoration of the Genocide against Tutsi.
According to the statement sent to The New Times, an initial 260 latest generation XO-4 TOUCH laptops will arrive within the next few weeks, said that; \"Although the ceremonies that will take place within the next few days will be conducted under a mourning environment, One Laptop Per Child will like not only to pay homage to those who died, but at the same time will like to recognise and honor the enormous process of rebuilding the nation during the past two decades. This progress and transformation has been done under the leadership of President Paul Kagame and of his government,\" said Rodrigo Arboleda, CEO of OLPC. |
