Cambodian Children's Fund is the organization that has helped us develop our programs and initiatives. When CFC first started, the children we support were all a part of Cambodian Children's Fund's system. However, starting the 2018-19 school year, we began working with the Pon Heary Ly Foundation. CFC is still connected with Cambodian Children's Fund through the Pen Pal program.

About Cambodian Children's Fund:

​

Cambodian Children’s Fund transforms the country's most impoverished kids into tomorrow'sleaders, by delivering education, family support and community development programs into the heart of Cambodia’s most impoverished communities. We were recently given a 100% rating by Charity Navigator, putting us in the top 1% of all charities when it comes to governance, transparency and financial responsibility.

​

Cambodian Children’s Fund believes that with quality education and leadership, one child has the potential to lift an entire family out of poverty and a generation of educated children has the power to change a society. By investing in the health, education and well-being of impoverished children and youth, we are building the skills, confidence and integrity they need to become leaders of positive change in their communities.

​

Through intensive, long-term investments in children, CCF is helping students build the skills, confidence and integrity they need to become spokespeople and leaders of change in their communities.

​

Since 2004, we’ve been working with some of the most impoverished communities in Cambodia, centered around the former garbage dump at Steung Meanchey. Back then, our world revolved around the health and well-being of 45 children living on the garbage dump. Today there are more than 2,300 students working towards a better future for themselves and their families through CCF’s award winning education program.

​

The garbage dump was closed in 2009, however the need for CCF’s services continues as Steung Meanchey remains an entry-point into Phnom Penh for destitute families with no option but to try and make a living through scavenging or begging on the city streets.

​

Through a range of programs that focus on 6 core areas – Education, Leadership, Community Outreach, Healthcare, Childcare and Careers And Life Skills – we take a holistic, on-the-ground approach to developing integrated solutions to the complex issues of poverty. We work hand-in-hand with local families to deliver support programs, strengthen self-governance and grow safe, supportive communities where children can thrive.
