Education for 300 Urban Poor Children

"My child is friendly and braver than before. He talks a lot and uses polite words.

He has a good hygiene. He likes to study and go to study regularly."

Said Sokheng’s mother, Ms. Chenda

Sokheng is 9 years old and studies in grade 3. His family lives in Phneath village. His mother is a widow and works as a cleaner in a coffee shop. His family's living conditions are very difficult due to a lack of knowledge and skills. Due to the lack of knowledge, his family faces many difficulties. They used inappropriate words, putting children in unhygienic living conditions and not paying much attention to family members.

Sokheng's family faces many difficulties, including using inappropriate language, neglecting hygiene and cleanliness, and not paying attention to each other's needs. These challenges can have a significant impact on Sokheng's well-being and his ability to succeed in school.

However, the support of SCO helps his family to improve their living conditions and create a more supportive environment. Parents' meetings, for example, can provide families with the knowledge and skills they need to practice good hygiene, communicate effectively, and support their children's education. The program (CFDP) also focused on health and education which can also provide support to his family by providing resources, education, and other support that help his family to improve living conditions and enhance his opportunities for success. "Through the children's club, it helped me to be more hygienic and through the activities in the club helped me to be more courageous and happy." Sok Heng said.

It is heartening to hear that Sokheng's family has made progress in their living conditions and family relationships. Their newfound knowledge and skills on how to take care of their home and clothes have resulted in a cleaner and more pleasant living environment. “Now my family knows how to take care of the house and the clothes are better cleaned and less smelly. My family relationships are more debatable, and work is more lucrative, and there is more effort.” Said his mother.

These changes demonstrate the positive impact that children’s and parent' club can have on families. By providing support and education, families like Sokheng's can acquire the resources and knowledge they need to improve their living conditions and enhance their relationships with each other.
