Kampong Thom Province
We operate in Kampong Thom Province, 200 kilometres from the capital, Phnom Penh and 200 kilomtres from Siem Reap. Kampong Thom is one of the poorest rural provinces in Cambodia. An estimated 20% of Kampong Thom’s rural population live in poverty. "Many Cambodian students are not acquiring the foundational skills in literacy and numeracy crucial for future learning and a dynamic workforce​​...Cambodia continues to have a serious infrastructure gap and would benefit from greater connectivity and investments in rural and urban infrastructure."
