Investing in tomorrow’s children
Children’s Future provides 251 marginalized children in Battambang, Cambodia, with cutting edge social work and educational services, so that they can grow to be the country’s next generation of leaders.
Well-Being
Ensuring that every child is happy, healthy and safe.
We make sure all students have access to food, healthcare, and emotional support, because physical and emotional health is necessary for a child’s success in school.
Education
Equipping children with the tools they need to live happy, fruitful lives.
First, we get students into school and up to speed. Then, at our Learning Center, students can take “21st century” classes to get a great education.
Community
Building a sustainable future from within the community.
To guarantee that students are supported in every aspect of their lives, we run monthly family workshops to educate the community on problems affecting our students.
Making a real difference
Make the difference today:
“An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.”
-Benjamin Franklin
