We recently had Sam Walker from (Life Bridge) come to our Club and speak about the work she is doing for young people in Cambodia.
Sam's background is in journalism and photography and these led her to volunteer roles sharing the stories of people and organisations in Cambodia.
Sam eventually found herself working with young people and was inspired by their thirst for knowledge and determination to find a way out of poverty and Sam loved mentoring them.
It wasn't long before Sam saw a gap in their education, including life skills, and the lack of resources they had access to. She could see how much a centre where they could meet, study, access internet and learn soft skills could make such a huge difference.
Unfortunately, Covid delayed opening the doors of Spean Chivit at first and the process has had ongoing challenges. A drop in tourism meant communities suffered immensely. Support is needed more than ever....

Thank you Sam and the Spean Chivit team for everything you're doing for the youth in their community. ๐
Now more than ever young Cambodians, especially those in Siem Reap, need support, access to resources and skills that will give them an advantage in a tough labor environment.
