Story

We are requesting donations to raise essential funds to support two schools in rural Cambodia which educate over 900 children. All funds raised will go directly to VDCA in Cambodia and will be used to educate these children.

VDCA (Volunteer Development Children's Association) School functions as a supplementary school to the public school system for the majority of the children who attend classes. Some students, however, are orphans or come from families who cannot afford the unofficial fees often charged for public schools. In these cases VDCA is their only access to schooling. VDCA has evolved from two basic thatch classrooms to a large school with more than 600 students. In January 2012 VDCA opened the Anlung Pi Free School (VDCA 2) which educates an additional 300 children. Many of the children attending Anlung Pi have parents who work at the local dump collecting recyclables. Others have parents who have been forced to relocate for work and as a result are being raised by extended family members. Anlung Pi also has a Nursery School and Feeding Program for the kids whose parents work at the dumpsite only earning a few dollars a day.   SCC will assist Togh (School Principle) and his team to get more permanent support and sponsorship so that the continuation and progression of their schools will be more secure. £32000 is enough money to cover the annual running costs for both schools.

A donation of £200 would pay a teacher's salary for one month; £60 would cover electricity and water in both schools for one month. £25 would enable computer studies to be provided in both schools for one month. Any donation makes a difference - £6 buys 150 pens or one school uniform; £5 buys 30 books; £2 buys a school bag for a child.

SCC works with VDCA to support the long term planning and sustainability of this wonderful resource.
