I had a look at your website, it's all a bit vague, it appears that you run a business in the US which uses the generic "Free Trade" slogan (with no apparent qualification) to promote your company. After teaching some obscure monk English he asked if you could help with his language "school" and you agreed to provide the extremely generous amount of $250 to assist, wow!
Now you are calling for volunteers, anyone really, who, after surviving your rigorous screening program, will teach english, supervised by your, no doubt, competent, diligent staff, so good of you to pay for transport..
And, of course, it allows you to market your clothing business as "socially responsible", worth every bit of $250 i'd say.
I hope that anyone looking to make a meaningful contribution with their time looks anywhere but at cambodianthreads, cos it looks to me like just another cynical exercise in marketing, and to cloak it as a "worthy cause", well, words fail me..
