Sustainable Cambodia is an international nonprofit organization working to help the residents of rural Cambodian villages create a sustainable quality of life through wells, irrigation systems, schools, training and empowerment.
Sustainable Cambodia is funded through public support by child sponsors and contributors from around the world, and through the generous support of Rotary clubs from around the world. By our founding principles, only native Cambodians may be employed as paid staff, and all international officers, directors and consultants are unpaid volunteers, ensuring that 100% of funding goes directly into the rural village programs.
Sustainable Cambodia helps Cambodian villages become self-sustaining communities where people want to live, with healthy water, good food, health care and education for the residents, where there is environmental and social responsibility and employment that allows them to sustain and continually improve their quality of life.
We are not an "aid" organization: We work with the village families through a unique participatory empowerment model, providing resources, assistance, training and education. The families do the hard work. This empowers the families to revitalize their community and economy, creating a self-sustaining quality of life. In return for the assistance from Sustainable Cambodia, the families commit to passing on the gift by helping other families and communities.
Sustainable Cambodia works through this empowerment model at the grassroots level, effecting change community by community.
We hope you will join us by sponsoring a child, or by helping village families with wells, garden seed, fishponds, bees and other needed resources through our Village Gifts program. The difference you make will be positive and lasting, and will spread from village to village, changing lives for the better.
