Volunteer overseas, in Cambodia

As our volunteer in Cambodia you will have the opportunity to teach English and volunteer in-and outside of Battambang and Siem Reap, near Angkor Wat. You can volunteer at an orphan home in Battambang, Cambodia. You can volunteer at village schools for poor children outside Siem Reap, that can’t afford teachers. You can possibly volunteer at a center for disabled, landmine victims in Siem Reap, Cambodia.

Cambodia

It conjures different thoughts in different people. Some people think of the amazing temples of Angkor Wat. Other people remember the atrocities of the Khmer Rouge. Some remember the secret and illegal bombings by the US that bred the Khmer Rouge movement. Today children are once again going to school. Tourists from Japan, Korea and the West are coming in large numbers. They discover the warmth and friendliness of the Khmer people. They spend a lot of money. Many Cambodians are looking to the future with a sense of hope but not all. Corruption is rampant, and trafficking of children, prostitution, HIV/AIDS take its toll. Much of the tourism revenue ends up in the pockets of a few.


Why volunteer in Cambodia?

40% of the country’s population is under the age of 15! Almost all of the country’s qualified teachers and doctors were executed by the Khmer Rouge. Landmines have left a large number of adults and children, especially from the villages, maimed and disabled for life if not killed. Children have been orphaned due to AIDS This leaves a huge void in the field of education, child and health care and Cambodia is in great need of overseas volunteers.
