Volunteer Cambodia Volunteering Abroad Orphanage Child Care Assistance Missions

Volunteer Cambodia: Orphanage / Child Care Assistance The orphanage provides a home and education to over 100 children, ages 2yrs to teenagers. All these children are orphans, or have been abandoned by their families.

Most of the children previously worked as garbage pickers at the Steung Mean Chey landfill in Phnom Penh. The children at the orphanage thrive on the attention and love our volunteers can share with them.

This orphanage provides a stable and loving home for the children, as well as to teach them to be good, productive citizens and to give them an education and vocational or university training so that they can become independent. Vocational training includes sewing, tailoring, cooking, car mechanics and other life skills necessary for the children to one day be self-sufficient.

Volunteers are free to tutor the children, organize arts and crafts or sports activities, and help out with basic chores such as feeding the kids, and folding laundry. This is a meaningful way to learn first hand the hardship most children in the world face, and give back to the underprivileged children growing up in a Third World country.

This placement is suitable for volunteers who wish to share their love and compassion for orphans. The placement is sure to provide numerous opportunities to serve these destitute children.

All activities at the center are related to taking care of these infant children.

Prior experience not necessary, volunteers should have a lot of patience and come prepared with creative ideas and games to share with the kids.
