About this Project:
From our partner school —
For over a decade we have run extracurricular classes at our school in Siem Reap. Thousands of rural children, from 3rd to 6th grade have benefited from our free English and Computer training. During the school lockdowns due to the Covid crisis, school was sealed off in a quarantine zone for a time, and later used as a treatment center. During those months, we were unable to enter the school or tend to our classrooms and equipment. As soon as schools reopened, we did a thorough check and testing of all of our equipment. Many of our 2nd hand PCs and monitors were broken and in need of replacing. We would like to request a small grant to upgrade 17 computer/monitor units so we can run our classes at full capacity. We have 200 children enrolled and eager to resume their computer studies.
Donations of all sizes are warmly welcomed.

FCC is recognized by the Cambodian government with MOUs from Ministries of Foreign Affairs, and Education, Youth, and Sports. Our activities include: translation, production and distribution of children’s books, and assisting a shelter for minor girls rescued from sexual exploitation and domestic violence. We provide English, computer and art classes; rice and cooking gas monthly, and weaving looms and sewing machines for vocational training. We built and maintain a second story with bedrooms and lavatories. At a primary school in Siem Reap, we built and furnished an IT lab, teacher’s office, 3-classroom school building and student lavatories. 300+ students benefit from our English, computer and sports training. 60 students benefit from our assisting a village school. We operate a hostel for 20 rural boarding students earning their post graduate degrees. We also help with the annual Cambodian Special Olympic Games.
