Children Legacy Organisation
Since 2011, he runs the school all by himself, teaching over 70 local village children free of charge. To do this, he relies on the help of volunteers to help teach English, Chinese and Donations to assist with buying school supplies including pencils, paper, notebooks, food program and Clean Safe Drinking Water.
Sovannarith will accept you directly as soon as possible as he always need Volunteers.
Sovannarith does a Tuk Tuk service for volunteers as well to be easier to get to the village and support his school. His Tuk Tuk service is to pick everyone up from the airport, bus stops and hotels and also for the Angkor Wat Temple Tour,too. Most volunteers took his Tuk Tuk service to support him as he is a volunteer for the school as well. He needs all supports.
Hello. I am Sovannarith , the volunteer founder and director of the place, a children's charity located in the countryside near Siem Reap I have been running this NGO since 2011 but am in need of volunteers to help this project grow. I speak English and want to Educate our children with a key focus on language skills like English, Chinese and computer skills to give them a better chance in the future. I believe it is very important to help our children to be educated and successful in life.
I have Invested in building a water filtration system in my House, which provides FREE clean filtered drinking water to everybody in my village. I also run a Free Food programm once a month to provide food to the poor families in the village.
I hope with extra funding this organization will be able to grow and expand reaching out to more children and extra lessons. Anyone who would like to come and support me or teach other languages to the children are very welcome. We have two classrooms where our lessons take place.
Volunteers will be accepted directly by Sovannarith.

Note: Volunteers are not allowed to rent motorbikes or scooters to drive to the village or to school during their volunteer work with us because there has been too many accidents and it has been banned by law.
In addition to this, a certificate is provided as proof of involvement with the school and it can be used as a reference for any teaching jobs you may want to apply for in the future. The school is the ideal place as a starting point for anyone holding a TEFL certificate (not a must) as it offers the opportunity to practice teaching skills and classroom management, although we do welcome anyone to join - whether you have any prior experience/teaching certificate or not.
