About This Project:
Per KYSD – “Unemployment is the most important issue confronting youth, especially young women, in Cambodia. Innumberable thousands cannot read, write, or communicate well, and when it comes to job searching, every field is very competitive. English skills are the absolute key to finding secure placement. The objective of the project posted here is ultimately poverty reduction.
Our young females need to earn money for themselves and their families, and ultimately their future families. We want to provide a solid opportunity to access English language skills and have a better life.
