Life and Hope Association
Siem Reap, Cambodia
The Life and Hope Association (LHA) envisages a Cambodia that is a peaceful and cohesive society, with equal rights and equal opportunities, built on a basic foundation of love, kindness and compassion. We believe illiteracy (ignorance) is the cause of all suffering. We aim to strengthen quality of life and to awake all classes of people to a meaningful life by sharing with each other.

Current Projects
LHA runs five types of projects:1) An orphanage — children's development village provides a happy life, a safe and healthy place for physical and mental growth to orphans and vulnerable children 2) A Junior High School — provides further education opportunity to children of Angkor Thom areas who hardly have any access education 3) A vocational sewing training center — provides housing and an opportunity to vulnerable girls and women to transform their future 4) PAGE (program advancing girls' education)- provides boarding house for girls' education, as an unbiased path for young girls of Cambodia to achieve the highest possible level of education and 5) Food for education project — provides food and school materials to impoverished children in exchange for their attendance in school
Financial Needs
As LHA is an education focused organization, we do need all sorts of education materials such as books, pens and of course financial assistance is even more important as every year (during August and September) we need extra funding at least $6,500 to buy school materials for our kinds and students. $13 for each school kit which consist of pens, pencils, books, uniforms, bag, pencil sharpener etc, and the number of our caring kids is increasing every year (current kids are over 500), so it is even burden on our responsibility to providing them their educational needs.
Mission Statement
Our goal is to improve the lives of the impoverished people of Cambodia especially vulnerable children, girls and women in Siem Reap, in order to give them HOPE in LIFE and the prospects of a better future.
