Elma School Cambodia
The School educates around 430 students daily, teaching English, math, computer skills, moral and gender equality and Farming. We are always in need of fluent English-speaking volunteers to support our Khmer teachers in the classrooms with pronunciation and grammar. Classes run daily between 08:00 and 11:00 and again from 14:00 to 17:00. We ask each volunteer to commit to the morning, afternoon or both sessions.

Community Development Program
The Community Development Program provides an opportunity for those who wish to assist our Social Workers. Working with families in crisis situations is both challenging and rewarding. It involves problem solving, assisting our Khmer Social Workers with their family reports, and visits to the community. Volunteers for the Community Development Program must have computer skills so that they can assist our staff in preparing and vetting family reports.
