The vision behind Chromebooks is simple -- to create a safe, accessible, and affordable laptop. To improve user privacy and security, Chromebooks  automatically update to provide virus protection, encryption and safe browsing. For easy access and collaboration, they’re outfitted with Gmail, Google Docs, Hangouts (and nonprofits receive the full Google Apps bundle with 30GB of space per user at no charge).

The vision behind Chromebooks is simple -- to create a safe, accessible, and affordable laptop. To improve user privacy and security, Chromebooks  automatically update to provide virus protection, encryption and safe browsing. For easy access and collaboration, they’re outfitted with Gmail, Google Docs, Hangouts (and nonprofits receive the full Google Apps bundle with 30GB of space per user at no charge). What’s more, they start at $169 USD & that’s for a laptop that has up to 10+ hours of battery life!</span></div> <b style="font-weight: normal;"><br /> </b> <br /> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.7999999999999998; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"> <span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "roboto condensed"; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><img height="349" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/3-ZIpvRJ7_vBpf3167XezAkgJ3iy4jbYHvwng5i7HeumT4VteLjo1OR1se_mu3obtr3IEoZJbOWamsEViROsQFbT3kuvmt7WjteezHL3jYlG9LGDLmgpDOehv6lextHzNh2LvQia" style="-webkit-transform: rotate(0.00rad); border: none; transform: rotate(0.00rad);" width="525" /></span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.7999999999999998; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"> <span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "roboto condensed"; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">ASUS Chromebook C201($169)</span></div> <b style="font-weight: normal;"><br /> </b> <br /> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.7999999999999998; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "roboto condensed"; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: italic; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Case Study</span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.7999999999999998; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "roboto condensed"; font-size: 18.666666666666664px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Charity:water, a non-profit organization that provides clean and safe drinking water to people in developing countries, has a “100 percent model,” where every dollar donated goes directly to fund clean water projects.

With Google Ad Grants to run an AdWords campaign and Google Analytics to track behavior on their site, they were able to get their message in front of millions of people. Instead of flying around the world to train their many volunteers, they relied on Google Hangouts to efficiently and cost-effectively spread their knowledge. Twenty-five different sporting events means a lot of things to keep track of.
