Fifty years after the devastating genocide of the 1970s, children in Cambodia are still living in extreme hardship.

Many lack proper housing or sanitation, and their school buildings are often broken down—yet their only hopes and dreams are to be able to go to school.

As Chenda Chhi, Founder of Coral Tree Education Foundation, explains, we are working to change this by rebuilding old schools in small villages. We clear the land and install new buildings with foundations built to last 200 years.

Our momentum is picking up, and we are now helping about 1,500 students and over 100 college women across two provinces. We know our program can be replicated, and we won’t stop until we reach the next school and the next generation of learners.

Even in the face of immense challenges, the resilience and talent of Cambodian children are truly remarkable. As our founder, Chenda Chhi, shares, these young learners are not just survivors—they are smart, curious, and incredibly eager to succeed.

From teaching themselves to dance by replicating movements from books to older siblings helping the younger ones learn to read during school closures, their focus is unwavering. They understand deeply that education is their path to a better life.

At Coral Tree Education Foundation, we believe these children have all the internal abilities they need to thrive; they just need the opportunity to do so.

Without an education, the future for a child in rural Cambodia is uncertain.

Our founder, Chenda Chhi, has seen the cycle firsthand: when parents don't have the chance to go to school, they are often forced to leave their villages—and their children—behind to find manual labor jobs in the city or even in other countries.

Without English or computer skills, they are limited to grueling work on construction sites just to survive.

This lack of opportunity doesn't just affect one person; it breaks the family infrastructure and leaves the next generation facing the same hunger and hardship. We believe that a decent basic education is the only way to stop this cycle and keep families together.

No SUVs or luxury commutes here—just pure determination. 🚲⛈️

In Cambodia, children ride their bikes for hours through monsoon rains and scorching 105-degree heat just to get to class. As our founder, Chenda Chhi, shares, this resilience is the heartbeat of the students we serve.

Take Sovanna, for example. We first found her playing soccer barefoot in the mud with the boys. Today, she is the captain of her high school soccer team, competing at the provincial level and dreaming of becoming a professional athlete and attending college.

Sovanna is just one example of the incredible talent and drive waiting to be unlocked. With just a little bit of help, these children don't just survive—they blossom.
