"Reglue is an organization that has been placing Linux computers in
the homes of financially disadvantaged kids since 2005. The program
started in central Texas and we'd love to see it grow [...].
Using Linux as the operating system has not been a matter of religion
or partisanship. Not even a matter of personal choice. It's a matter
of pragmatic necessity. To give you a better picture of why, here's
the story of Ricky.
In short: We installed a computer for a financially-disadvantaged kid.
We taught that kid how to use the computer. That kid was supremely
happy with his new Linux computer. We left. The end."

Like "Reglue" we started the "Linux Against Poverty" campaign in Cochin, 
India.
We only got few number of computers as donation. I hope the situation may 
change in future.
