The One Laptop per Child organisation is doing an amazing job around the world. I heard Professor Nicholas Negroponte from MIT on ABC National Radio's Science Show yesterday talking about the concept of giving every child in every village in Cambodia a laptop. An amazing project and as someone who has filmed various aid projects in that country, I was well impressed.
Their web site: http://www.laptop.org/en/ is a good place to start. I love this use of technology and the way these guys worked with the laptop manufacturers around the world to get screens that would work in direct sun, for example, is inspiring. (I'd love one of those)
You can donate to this project on www.amazon.com/xo
