Kids in Class

Finally - Children in School!

In the latest report from Andrea - our fantastic project manager / Managing Director she told us that we have a 100% school enrolment rate and a pretty damn good attendance rate (taking into account the rainy season) for all families involved. That would be thanks to the good work of our newest team member and social worker Sokdet.

What's more we managed to raise $500 AUD this week for the project from a Fair trade event in Adelaide, taking us closer to our $12,500 target. Thanks Fair Trade Flinders!

In other exciting news i will be travelling to Cambodia in December to hold the fort while Andrea is home in the US for Xmas and do what i can to help for 2-3 months. You can except lots of cool pictures direct from the source.

Finally if anyone is ever interested in helping out we love volunteers here or in Cambodia and we are always looking for new sales channels to sell carpets in Australia.

Congratulations on your successes so far!

I will pay you a visit my next time in Poipet - drove through it today, and was reminded that region can use all the help we can throw at it.
