Some of the world's largest beer companies exploit Cambodian women to sell their products, and may deny these women basic labour and human rights, (refusing to recognise them as employees). When AIDS, alcohol and other work place dangers prove fatal, these 'throwaway beer girls' are replaced with young recruits. Ethicalbeer.com monitors the sales practices and health, safety and welfare policies of major globalized beer companies doing business in Cambodia. For additional facts, background information and action strategies, why not consult our sister site www.fairtradebeer.com or visit www.beergirls.org, a site providing a voice to the women at risk in Cambodia.

Dear Friends Your support is urgently needed by SiRCHESI -- Siem Reap Citizens for Health, Educational and Social Issues-- as its staff confronts the HIV/AIDS pandemic and other severe health challenges ravaging their Cambodian community. In Siem Reap, there are an estimated 7-10,000 persons living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHAs), and women are increasingly at risk. Only a few hundred people currently are receiving life-prolonging anti-retroviral therapy (ARVT). Please support our health promotion efforts with a small (or large!!) donation. Best Wishes Ian Lubek (International advisor to SiRCHESI) Read the full letter (in rtf) from Ian and find out how to make a donation!
