Easter Season week 3 - Africa challenge

During the great 50 days of Easter, U2 Sermons is celebrating the power of the risen Christ to change lives by supporting an AIDS education program in Cameroon whose focus is training teachers to use computers to deliver information on HIV-AIDS. 97% of teachers in Cameroon do not have any computer skills, and 90% of students graduate from high school without ever having seen or touched a computer in the classroom. We did fine with donations the first week, but not so well the second week. The great thing about this project (other than that it's through the cool hands-on GlobalGiving site) is that their goal is only $1000: if half of our daily readers gave $10, we'd be there in a heartbeat.
