Beth's Blog: How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media

SEPTEMBER 8, 2010

Note from Beth: As a supporter of the work that the Sharing Foundation does for children in Cambodia, I’ve seen first hand the value of literacy programs in developing countries. This week, nearly a year after first beginning to work with Room to Read, we’re proud to be taking part in promoting Literacy Day.

Roger Carr has said it much better than I can in his post directing his blog readers to the Sharing Foundation's America's Giving Challenge fundraiser set up by Michele Martin. I'd also like to point over to Bob Uva's blog post about the supporting the Sharing Foundation. Thank you Michele and Roger! I met Bob through Facebook.

Room to Read , a San Francisco based non-profit, will help us make that happen by bringing libraries and literacy to the world's poorest regions. Based on my experience with the Sharing Foundation in Cambodia, I know how important it is for children in developing countries to have books to read in their own language.

I took it during my last trip to Cambodia, almost three years ago. We built a new school building for them - and the school is a literacy program. I love that photo. Those kids are the children of the poorest villagers in Roteang Village. Their parents are working on our farm project. A sort of Headstart program.

" And every year since she became a grandmother to an adopted Cambodian child, I said, "Make a donation to the Sharing Foundation." No, I asked them to contribute $10 to the Sharing Foundation (and they did) I guess you're wondering why my mom asked about the outhouse? Now Beng Krom???s family latrine??? shown above.

I just got an email from Dr. Hendrie who is in Cambodia right now. We have an opportunity to receive a couple of OLPCs for our literacy program at our farming project (we school the kids of farmers who we train to farm the land, sell vegetables, proceeds go into micro loan fund.). Okay, that's not a huge amount, but I'm the donor!
