Discover our 4 fields of action: Education : Public school is free in Cambodia but comes at a certain cost: paying for the uniforms, school supplies, transport etc. These are expenses most parents cannot afford. Therefore, many children are denied their fundamental right to go to school. EFCC's mission is to give these children quality education.The oldest go to public school in the morning and receive additional classes at the centre in the afternoon. The youngest go to school at the centre, where our Khmer professors teach them in English and in Khmer following the national education programme. The volunteers supervise one hour of sports or manual activities each afternoon. Alimentation : Many of the children we take care of present nutritional deficiencies. Some have suffered from stunted growth and chronic diseases linked to bad eating habits. To remedy to this, EFCC provides the children with healthy lunches and afternoon snacks along with vitamin supplements which are crucial for their physical and intellectual development. Healthcare : The children take a shower when they arrive at the centre every morning. We encourage good hygiene practices by teaching them to brush their teeth twice a day and wash their hands before every meal. Minor injuries are treated at the centre's infirmary. We take the children to the doctor or to the hospital whenever it is necessary. The NGO pays for all of the costs minus a small amount we ask the parents to contribute to responsibilise them and give them the habit of integrating health care in their budget. The children go to the dentist regularly thanks to a partner NGO, Cambodia World Family. They also benefit from free eye tests and ears, nose and throat screening thanks to our partners. Family help: EFCC is not a substitute for the children's families but seeks to act alongside them to ensure the good development of their kids. We are thus doing all we can to build strong and lasting cooperative relationships with the parents. By putting their children to school, we take a source of income from them. To compensate for this loss of income, we give the families a material help each month (rice, bread, medication, clothes). Our actions are made possible thanks to the generosity of sponsors and donors. All donations received are directly allocated to these actions with children.
Each of GlobalGiving’s nonprofit partners is required to send quarterly donor reports detailing the impact of their work.
