Intel and Save the Children Launch Small Things Challenge.

Building upon Intel’s 40 years of active efforts to improve education, Intel’s "Small Things Challenge" aims to raise awareness and money for two of the world’s most pressing challenges — increasing access to quality education and fostering economic development in emerging countries. A small donation to Save the Children’s Rewrite the Future campaign can help us give thousands of children in conflict-affected countries around the world the opportunity to attend school.

Rewrite the Future: Background

Since 2005, Rewrite the Future has improved the quality of education for 10.6 million children affected by conflict and emergencies. But today over 40 million children still are denied a basic education because of conflicts and many more don't receive the quality education that is their right.

To help promote global education, actress America Ferrera has joined Save the Children as an artist ambassador. Read more about her commitment.

In a joint statement released Nov. 20, 2008, 31 winners of the Nobel Peace Prize enlisted by Save the Children called for urgent action to implement quality education and build peace in conflict-affected countries. Hundreds of writers worldwide have joined Save the Children in demanding that all children have the opportunity to attend school.

Over the long run, education is integral to building peace and prosperity. With well-trained teachers and appropriate curricula, schools can leave a legacy for a generation of young people who will have skills for employment, an understanding of their rights, and an appreciation for the rights of others.
