Helping to Bring High Tech to Children in Uruguay | |

Last week, President Jorge Batlle Ibanez of Uruguay formally accepted a donation of 500 PCs for the country's schools and learning centers. The donation came from Weyerhaeuser, an international forest products company employing 55,000 people in 18 countries, with additional contributions by Microsoft, Dell, Hewlett-Packard, Office Depot and EDS. At the ceremony, President Batlle was presented with one of the computers, sealed in a box decorated with the signatures of dozens of volunteers who worked on the project. The donation project began with a commitment made last year by Weyerhaeuser CEO Steve Rogel to President Battle to send a container load of computers to Uruguay. Weyerhaeuser's Common Operating Environment project, in which 70 percent of the desktops in the company were replaced, made available a large number of PCs for donation early this year. | ||
