Today I’m talking about the amazing Xprize foundation & their latest endeavor the Global Learning Xprize that my friend John Raymonds has got me excited about:

The general idea is that  competition brings about change and that this change can from from anywhere whether that be a huge multinational corporation or a few school kids with a good idea…they are all equally able to make changes that can benefit humanity.  Well now they’re applying this huge cash prize competitive approach to coming up with a technological solution to the 250 million children in the world who can’t read or write!
Fanaticares videos spotlight subjects that I’m hoping will change the world for the better.  This could be individual people with personal stories, local or global causes, charities, philanthropic ventures or anything else that's worth pointing out and getting people excited about!
