Our NGO empowers and inspires communities through holistic education. We provide English, IT, and life skills courses to disadvantaged youth in Cambodia while also developing soft skills such as self-confidence, leadership, citizenship, and social responsibility. Students are encouraged to apply their learning in real-life situations. To support our schools financially, we have established an administrative arm that manages three accommodation facilities in Kampot: a boutique hotel, a bungalow park, and a residence/guesthouse. Profits from these businesses directly fund our educational programs across the country. This partnership between our NGO and business group allows us to combine quality hospitality services with meaningful social impact. By volunteering with us, you contribute directly to improving access to quality education and skills training for underprivileged youth in Cambodia. Since 2000, we have reached more than 200,000 students through transformative education programs. We currently operate over 50 schools across Cambodia, Laos, Japan, and Timor-Leste, serving around 15,000 students daily. Our schools in Cambodia and our hospitality projects in Kampot are supported by a vibrant community of passionate volunteers who share a vision of creating positive change. Join us and help make a lasting impact.
We are a small community school located in Tnol Trong Village, just 13 km from Siem Reap, Cambodia. The school is a registered non-profit NGO, founded in February 2013 by our family. Cambodia is experiencing strong growth in tourism, creating future job opportunities, especially around Siem Reap. For these children, English is essential. Our goal is to provide children from disadvantaged backgrounds with free English and Chinese education, helping them access better employment opportunities in the future. We currently offer free English classes to nearly 180 children from the Bakong community. Many families face challenges such as limited access to food, water, healthcare, and school-related costs like uniforms and fees. For many children, education is the only path to break the cycle of poverty and build a better future. We welcome volunteers to support us in giving these children better educational opportunities and brighter futures.
Association of Cambodia Child First (ACCF) is a Cambodian non-governmental organization working for the common good of society, focusing on the education of children and support for thousands of families in Bakong District. Established in 2014, ACCF has since supported an average of 100 children and thousands of the poorest families. ACCF provides free full-time English and Chinese classes five days a week, along with essential learning materials, including notebooks, textbooks, school bags, shoes, and pens. The program also offers monthly breakfasts to around 220 children to support their daily well-being and learning. The project is based in Steong Village, Bakong Commune, Bakong District, Siem Reap Province, approximately 15 kilometers from Siem Reap town. Many families in this rural area face economic hardship, making access to education and basic school supplies difficult. ACCF has identified key challenges such as lack of uniforms, learning materials, food, and transportation to school. Some children are unable to attend school due to distance and financial barriers. To address this, the organization works closely with local authorities to identify vulnerable children and families and provide targeted support. Through outreach programs, the ACCF team visits families to assess needs and ensure children receive essential educational resources. This includes school supplies, food support, and learning opportunities, helping reduce dropout rates and improve access to education. ACCF believes that all children are the foundation and future of the nation, and works to ensure they have equal opportunities to learn and grow.
