At the Sharing Foundation, we are always on the lookout for t shirts and other items to bring over, so I asked if I could have them. Jay Dedman sent the box of leftover Vloggercon T-Shirts from 2006 and they were hand carried over the Cambodia and presented to the college students being sponsored by the Sharing Foundation.

Somaly Mam , Cambodia woman, is an anti-slavery activist and survivor fighting for victims all over the world. Human Trafficking is a huge issue around the world, especially in Cambodia.

I just set up a ChipIn page and widget (see above) to help raise money for an NGO, the Sharing Foundation that supports children in Cambodia. My family and I have been sponsoring a young woman, Leng Sopharath for college (annual contribution $750 per year) and hope to be able to support her until graduation. I'm on the board.
