The money goes to the Sharing Foundation. My goal was to ask online and offline for $10 gifts and hope that 100 people donate the $1,000 needed. UPDATE: Anything over the $1,000 will support the Sharing Foundation's general fund to provide scholarships for college students in the program who don't have individual sponsors.

We not only kept that promise, but our family went on to support various projects in Cambodia through my board membership on the Sharing Foundation and through the connections I made through my first blog, Cambodia4kids. In 2007, I won the Yahoo for Good Contest, winning $50,000 for the Sharing Foundation. That time is this week!
