Sponsorship opportunities
Funding a student — £10 / $12 per month We work closely with a school director who identifies the poorest students that are struggling to complete their education. Your monthly contribution helps them with food, books and clothing.
Obviously it costs more than $120 a year for the family, but this represents the difference between a struggle to survive and the ability to be sure they can eat and buy books.
More than half of the students live in dormitories or with relations in the local villages as it is too far to go home at night. We know of students who skimp on food and get ill, because they do not want to ask their parents for money.
Pens and stationery — $10 / £8 When we ask a class of students how we could help, many said affording pens and writing books was a real struggle. A box of 36 pens costs $10 / £8. It is always appreciated when we turn up with pens and stationery.
Funding an IT Club class — $25 per week Pays for a teacher to deliver IT classes to up to 30 students — covering email, Google, internet safety and digital skills. $100 funds a month of classes.
This project has grown and evolved over a few years. We add new features focused on personal digital secuity such as 2FA (Two factor authentication) for their security, an overview of how to use basic Artificial Intelligence (AI) and how it can help improving farming in Cambodia, and highlight common scams in Cambodia – especially in the job market.
IT Club has become worthwhile and drawn attention from other charities.
Other smaller Projects
Technical projects, from time-to-time we help with technical experience. We have helped with security, WiFi, routers and infrastructure. Donations to a specific project are welcome — contact us to ask what is needed most.
Teacher training Many IT teachers in rural Cambodia are re-aligned science teachers with no formal IT training. We would like to send them to city-based courses. Your donation can make this possible.
Collaborative projects We fund small-scale projects combining different departments — for example, IT students building systems for the Agriculture department. Real-world experience that benefits the whole school community.
