Volunteer in Cambodia

The art center provides neglected, abused and impoverished children ages 5 to 15 with the opportunity to develop their imaginations and skills through painting. The center is a safe, stable and emotionally supportive social environment that aims to help ease the stress and chaos the children experience in their everyday lives.

The permanent project manager and staff provide friendly support and assistance throughout the program. Greenheart Travel is a division of CCI, a non profit founded in 1985 and run by seasoned travel enthusiasts who regularly participate in their own cultural exchanges.

Dates: Flexible, year round.

GlobeAware
Volunteer in Cambodia
Globe Aware's program is situated in Siem Reap, the gateway to the famous Angkor Wat temples. As so many have been maimed by landmines, Globe Aware is now developing a project assembling wheelchairs from recycled parts. Volunteers need no special skills, and will present finished product to recipients upon completion. In addition, as Cambodia's citizens are among the poorest on the globe. children have severely limited access and knowledge to choose future life paths. Parents want their children to have additional options in life, by offering them some instruction in English, computers (how to send email, to use Word, etc) hospitality skills, first aid etc. Volunteers may help teach children in the village school. A set itinerary is created, though there is ample room to pick and choose projects that appeal to you the most.

STAR Kampuchea
Volunteer Action for Cambodia
The program “Volunteer Action for Cambodia” (VAC) is organized by STAR Kampuchea, a Cambodian non-governmental organization. It is our mission to build up democracy and to strengthen civil society in our country. VAC was established in December 2004 and is run by Cambodian volunteers. The VAC program invites volunteers from all over the world to work with Cambodian non-governmental organizations. The idea is to bring foreign volunteers to Cambodia to exchange cultural and work experience and to contribute new impulses and fresh ideas to both Cambodian and the volunteers’ home society. VAC is designed primarily for college students and recent graduates. We help the volunteers to find a suitable placement and to organize their stay in Cambodia. The length of stay depends on the volunteer’s interests and varies between one week and three months. To gain a deep insight into the organizations and
their activities a minimum stay of three weeks is recommended.
