#GivingTuesday with Kolibri and Khan Academy Lite
Giving Tuesday is an annual day of giving, bringing the world together to give generously to nonprofits and social innovation causes. This year, we saw at least one donation every minute, raising over $4.5 million for worthy causes. Bret and Generosity by Indiegogo Lead Bre DiGiammarino sat down with Richard Tibbles of Learning Equality, the folks behind the Kolibri open source software for education, to discuss how they plan to give anyone access to a huge range of high-quality, educational content offline in even the most remote parts of the world.
