As I do every year for my birthday, I ask for donations to the Sharing Foundation in lieu of gifts or cards. This nonprofit helps to care for children in Cambodia. Many children in Cambodia do not go to school because their families lack the $10 for a uniform, required for school attendance.

Mean Lux is a blogger in Cambodia and was one of the organizers of the Cambodia Bloggers Summer last August. He is now a Program Director for the NGO he works for in Phnom Penh. He's a supporter (in spirit) of the Sharing Foundation's work - they don't use credit cards in Cambodia and so can't use the Global Giving page ).

Many children in Cambodia do not go to school because their families lack the $10 for a uniform, required for school attendance, and other school supplies. The sewing girls, who are employed by the Sharing Foundation's vocational training program, earn from the first day of their training, so this is a win-win situation.

But when I realized it would take a long time before a small NGO working in a country, like say, Cambodia, might be able to purchase a small number of them (less than 100) to outfit a school, I was disappointed. Tharum was disappointed too. And, we can even load them up with KhmerOS !).

Earlier this week, the Overbrook Foundation released a report on Web 2.0 Assessment of The Overbrook Foundation's Human Rights Grantees," is asking for reactions.

Past partners have included NGOs and nine truth commissions. Over 8 weeks this last fall, I had the privilege of working with NGOs from Afghanistan, Cambodia, Iraq, Lebanon and Syria, in a series of trainings that took place in Phnom Penh, Beirut and Istanbul. It was thought-provoking to work with Afghan NGOs in Cambodia.

Tharum started his blog in June 2004 while a student at the National University of Management and working for the Open Forum for Cambodia , a Cambodian NGO devoted to digital divide issues. I hope to get back to Cambodia and meet him face-to-face someday soon. Do you think blogging will really take off in Cambodia?
