Is there any proof that sugar is used everyday by nearly 3 million children at 
stated on the website? My research from 2 countries which have purchased over 
100,000 laptops has indicated that due to non-deliver, breakage, and disuse, 
the term 'used daily by 3 million children' is overstating use by an order of 
magnitude.

Optimism can be valuable. Deceit, even if you mean well, is not appropriate 
when dealing with some of the worlds most needy populations.
