We have already missed out on 2 major funding competitions: the X-Prize Adult Literacy entry registration deadline was in December 2015 and the X-Prize Global Learning registration deadline was back in April 2015. While we are too late for these, other things will come along that we might be able to taylor our work toward. We just need to be sure we know about them in time to come up with a fantastic proposal!

Out of the 140+ teams, the results of the peer review placed our project in a tie for 4th place overall! We have folks in our group with a proven track record in devising winning proposals. Now, all we need to do is find opportunities and make sure there will be some sort of funding awarded along with all the "glory."

I was thinking of a way on reviving the users of Sugar OS in Nigeria. Probably create a lab in Nigeria. But i can't do that alone, so i am basically need tips on how to create one. All i have been hearing from sugar labs is only in South and North America, Europe and Asia. But no Africa!! Which is not encouraging, I have been able to get teams to work in translating the Sugar into natives Nigerian Languages and i hope other countries in Africa do the same. Now that i am out of High School i want to use this opportunity to revive Africa if possible. Adam Holt i think you know more people with OLPC in Africa than I.

We are spread across more time zones than in the past, so it may be a bit more difficult to schedule a time that works for everyone (23UTC is great for UY and the US East Coast, but less convenient in FR and the US West Coast.
