the Cambodian Project was conceived when i was in Siem Reap
when i was there, however short my trip was, what i saw changed my perspectives
they are so poor, yet happy and contented!
which is a rare occurance in big cities, contentment..

anyhow, this project is my baby
and i’d love for it to work out
but in order for that to happen, i’d need as much help as i can get!
below are some information about what we currently have and what we’re striving to achieve

the general idea is:

1. we’ll be running a few collection drives here in kl or around Malaysia
2. the collections would include clothings (new, hand-me-downs but not too shabby for ages 2 – 18 preferably 2-5 year olds ), stationaries fit for children in kindergarten, primary and secondary schools and medical supplies
3. during the 3rd and 4th week of November, whoever who’d be interested to go would go and personally hand the clothings, stationaries and medical supplies to the people there
4. targeted area, Siem Reap and the rural areas in northewestern Cambodia

also, there are talks of organizing charity basketball tournaments as fundraisers where the money would either go to food, and/or medical supplies or straight to a particular children’s hospital.
these tournaments are slated to materialize in Singapore and also in KL.

For those who are interested in helping out but not physically going over to Cambodia, these are the few things that I’ll be needing help with:
1. a core group of dedicated, reliable and passionate people with ideas
2. people to help with the collection drives
3. people to help with promotion of the collection drives
4. people to help with sponsorships
5. contacts! (very the important.. haha)
6. people to help with logistics
7. publicity
8. volunteers where needed
actually, anyone who is interested in any way, it’ll be good to hear from you

i think its time we did something for them
and in turn, they’ll teach us a thing or two about the simplicities of life!
aint that wonderful?!
