    Fight Poverty

    Many children still do not haveaccess to native Englishspeakers.

    Many schools can not afford thesalaries required to employnative speakers.

    Often it is only the wealthyparents that can guarantee theirchildren an education thatensures that they willunderstand and confidently usethe English language.

    The disadvantaged remain just

    that; disadvantaged -throughlack of opportunity. This cycle of poverty continues

    to exist.

    Helping to redress thisinequality provides hope for thefuture.

    Language skills offer a betteremployment future and a way totackle the issues of poverty.

    Children become more confidentand look forward to school whenit can provide the addedprovision of a foreign teacher

    It can only be a good thing ifthe adults of the nextgeneration know that they will

    be able to provide their ownchildren an improved lifeexistence because a change forthe better happened in theirown childhoods.

    Education

    We believes that offering free education to these children canhelp to make the difference.

    I am looking for groups to support me to support my cause, my

    cause is to help children out of poverty through education.Children who have no education in 1st world countries or 3rd worldcountries have little chance to a good job, most take the easy wayout crime (etc) but here in Cambodia some parents sell therechildren into prostitution.

    Supporting a school term can seem a strange concept to theuninitiated. But this is a common misconception about my cause supporting is not what you are paying for, its the satisfaction ofwatching a child grow and be educated, and finally join the work

    force as an educated person.

    HELP CREATE CHANGE

    While I cant change Cambodia, I absolutely hope to help preventthese children from being illiterate.

    If youve read about poverty then you know its not a nice place togo.

    However, after several years (7) of trying to get this cause off theground I find this is the only solution. While supporting this cause inthis way is not tax deductible, please know that youre helping agreat cause

    Every person who sponsors a child whether it is for one dollar orone thousand dollars has my gratitude.

    Lets Look At Duang LemDuang Lem is northwest of Phnom Penh in the Battambang province

    (Cambodia) near to the

    Ban Leam border market in Thailand.As an under developed area the roads quickly turn to mud in the wet

    season and many of the homes and businesses only providethe basic amenities.

    The Childrens Futures

    Cambodian children have a cultural obligation to help and provide

    financial support to their parents.

    Many are forced to leave home (particularly in rural areas) to seek

    employment.

    This means factory work and hard manual labour with low wages and

    long hours.

    For others there is no escape from drug trafficking, prostitution or a life

    of crime..

    This could be the future for any ofthese children
