Agreed that they don't even have dumpsters, so you're arguing that it's better to take an African kid and instead of giving him something to eat, you plunk a laptop on his kwashiorkor-swollen belly? That hundred bucks would feed that kid for a year or two. But no, let him go watch some YouTube, it might take his mind off his starvation. If anyone has to do some cranial rectal-pulling, it might be you. Don't be so damn naive. Those child soldiers will be using those laptops to learn how to focus their rifle sights better.

I don't know what country you're in, so I can't comment on how it works. All I can tell you is that so far, my passport has had over 60 entry stamps from as many different countries, and I've seen enough poverty and starvation to last me a thousand lifetimes. What people in many of these countries need is:
1) Food.
2) Clean water.
3) The execution of ALL their corrupt politicians.
They don't need a green plastic clamshell in the naive expectation that one of them will be the African Bill Gates. Even if it works out that way, that one person will likely keep all the money to himself and let the rest of his fellow villagers starve in the mud.
