    Description

    Our NGO, empowers and inspires communities through holistic education. We offer English, IT and Life Skills courses to disadvantaged youths in Cambodia. We also nurture their soft skills such as self-confidence, leadership, citizenship and social responsibility, providing them with opportunities to apply their learning in real-life situations.

    To help us raise funds for our schools we have established an administrative arm, which runs three accommodation facilities in Kampot: a Boutique Hotel, a Bungalow Park, and a Residence/Guesthouse. The profits from these businesses directly support our educational programs nation-wide.

    This partnership between our NGO and our Group allows us to combine high quality hospitality services with meaningful social impact. By volunteering with either of our organisations you will be selflessly contributing toward much-needed quality education and skills training for Cambodia’s systemically underprivileged youth.

    Internationally since 2000, we have reached more than 200 000 students with our transformative education. We currently operate more than 50 schools across four countries in Asia (Cambodia, Laos, Japan and Timor Leste) that serve 15,000 students every day.

    Our schools in Cambodia and our commercial arm in Kampot have a vibrant community of passionate volunteers who share a common vision of creating positive change. If you want to join us and make a difference in the world, contact us today!

    NOTE: While we welcome short-term volunteers (3-week stay minimum), we are also interested in recruiting LONG-TERM VOLUNTEERS who will commit to a minimum of 3 months or more, which could well serve as your required work experience/internship, where relevant, if you are a university or college student. At the end of your stay with us you will receive a completion certificate as well as a letter of recommendation.

  • Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Travellers who volunteer in Cambodia can benefit from a cultural exchange experience by immersing themselves in the local culture and interacting with the people. They can learn about the history, traditions, values, and beliefs of Cambodians, as well as their challenges and aspirations. They can also teach their own culture and share their perspectives and skills with others. A cultural exchange can foster mutual understanding, respect, and friendship between diverse cultures.
