There are legit orgs out there and TFI members try to match their criteria for association, by pretending to be ordinary Christians and volunteers with nothing controversial about them. TFI had a strategy of invading the churches, "dropping-in" and infiltrating the system. They've used the cover of being NGOs, so why not use the cover of legit Christian volunteer groups? In this case, Touchstone could be a name they suggested together with other people unaware of who they are, or it could have been a name already in use, and they jumped on the bandwagon.
We do have to be careful, as it is known that TFI members recently tried to post on this board. This could be a trick for all we know. It's all speculation, since the original poster has not divulged any details on why they would be a TFI front per se. If anyone can identify some of those volunteers as known TFI members, then we'd have some solid evidence to go on.
