We are actively seeking donations at this time. Due to the high costs of solar panels and installation, the stipend will not fully fund the costs to set up the laptop program. Since one of our major concerns is sustainability, fundraising is a high priority.
- Donate by mail:
We are able to accept checks sent to:
One Laptop per Child
P.O. Box 425087

Please write the team name (UC Berkeley Uganda) in the memo of the check, and include a return address. OLPC is a 501(c)3 organization, and we can provide you with a tax ID number.
- You can donate online by clicking here and using the PayPal button under “Donate to OLPC”. Once you receive the “OLPC Foundation Donation Acknowledgement” email, you can state who should receive the funds – we are the UC Berkeley Uganda team.

Your donations are appreciated greatly. Our primary technical needs are a solar panels, inverters, power strips, USB memory sticks, and wireless routers. We are also collecting gifts and supplies for the children, including but not limited to mosquito nets, toys, and books. Donations will directly benefit the project and the students.
