LitLiberation

Another good cause for Blog Action Day:

[from LitLiberation: Scalable Education Revolution]

What is LitLiberation?

30% of rural children in developing countries aren’t enrolled in school. Let that soak in. For $17,000 — split among 10 friends at $1,700 each, for example — you can build a school with your names on it, immortalize your friendship, and give education to tens of thousands of children over decades.

LitLiberation is the largest online literacy experiment in history, redesigning fundraising as a competition with world-class prizes. You are part of the experiment.

Can we raise $1,000,000 from normal people in just four weeks? Many of the world’s top CEOs and bloggers think so.

We should be working hard to support literacy worldwide. Our only hope is an educated world population.
