That is pretty impressive. I can really get behind the people that are working on projects like this to make the lives of people in third world countries better. As you said, it is really easy for us to take for granted the luxuries that we have. I remember some of the scenes from I think it was "Slumdog Millionaire" and just how different our lives could be. I looked into writing some grants to the Gates foundation at one point for our school district which is relatively small and in a rural area so the tax revenue we get isn't as big as some neighboring districts. They really like focusing on underprivileged inner city districts though, so we were kind of out of the running. I didn't really mind though, I am just happy their money is doing some good somewhere.
