The attached is part of an email that I received from Holland American Lines that provides me with an opportunity to sail on their ship (my cost) so that I can "work directly alongside other travelers and local residents on projects that harness your own skills and passions" and provide free labor to a [-]communist[/-] foreign country that takes my dollars and pays it's w*rkers in pesos.
I can't fathom why I would consider an opportunity to toil under the Cuban sun to assist whom? I like to relax and enjoy my cruise, so I'll pass on this opportunity.

In 2016, fathom will make its maiden voyages to two vibrant Caribbean islands with different cultures, but with common dreams for the well-being of their people: Cuba, and the Dominican Republic. In the Dominican Republic, where fathom's established impact partners already have strong community connections, you'll work directly alongside other travelers and local residents on projects that harness your own skills and passions to help make a positive difference. In Cuba, as you connect and engage directly with the Cuban people through a pioneering program of educational and cultural exchanges, you'll be in the first wave of an ongoing fathom impact travel experience whose ultimate goal is to help facilitate and sustain programs to meet the needs of the local communities.
