Video Contest: 7 Ways to Change the World, enter today

Good morning,

I wanted to give you all a quick update on the 7 Ways to Change the World video contest.

As a little background, we asked folks how they would use Windows to help their local community and so far we’ve received some great videos.

     

ProjectExplorer.org is a non-profit organization that told a story of how donating a computer to 1,500 students at Mpontsheng Secondary School in Katlehong, South Africa made the children’s faces light up. They said they plan to use the grant to bring in a second computer.

Boys & Girls Clubs of the Peninsula illustrated how a high school student heading to work can help those around him by using his PC. For example, the young man could help feed the hungry by using the Internet to find the nearest place to buy food.

Founder of Roots and Wings International, Eric Swanson, speaks to how his organization changes lives through education and needs information tools to serve k'iche'-speaking students in Guatemala. 

We encourage you to keep these great ideas coming!

But remember, the deadline to submit your entry is Nov. 11, 2009. We’ll be announcing the 7 winners from Nov. 16 -24, 2009, with each winner receiving a new PC running Windows 7 and a $7,000 grant for their chosen eligible nonprofit or NGO.
