Situation: Approximately 300,000 Vietnamese live legally in Cambodia, while the numbers of illegals is thought to be at least five times higher. Many come to earn a living that is in reality substandard for any decent human. Due to this situation many families cannot afford the tuition for their children to attend school. Most children that do attend school, do so at the generosity of the teacher taking pity on these children, however this is the exception and not the rule.
For the
illegal families the situation is much worse.
Lacking proper IDs or nationality status, their children are force to
forego school and enter the workforce for even lower wages. The need for schooling is paramount for these
kids to have a chance. This program
would implement a program to teach these children in Cambodian, Vietnamese, and
English -- FREE OF CHARGE.
Goals:
To establish classrooms where the elementary classes would be free
of charge for all impoverished families working in the cities, provinces and
towns in the Kingdom of Cambodia (CBD). With
high expectations for the future, especially young Cambodian of Vietnamese
descent, providing opportunities for attending secondary schools in the major
provinces with scholarship assistance programs to those students that
demonstrate the drive and aptitude to succeed academically.
Implementation Modalities: Humanity International Organization (R.H.I.O.) is a
non-profit organization that has officially granted permission by the
government of the Kingdom of Cambodia.
It established in May of 2012 and is progressing to
build and develop elementary schools that are teaching Cambodian, Vietnamese
and English to students from first through fifth grade at no cost.
The program has launched on June 2, 2013 in the area of Borey Sieng Nam in Siem Reap city. After the program is stable and supported from contributors, the development of a finance to ensure continued revenue, the program will move forward to open more classes in other regions.

Teaching Objectives: The program aims to teach classes that will
consist of three languages (Cambodian, Vietnamese, and English) and will
provide mentors for each discipline.
This approach will provide these students with an added edge to enter
the workforce of today’s global economy.
The classes are currently held on Monday – Saturday, three hours in the morning
and three hours in the afternoon.
Campus Facilities: Depending on the circumstances of each
region, the size and form of the facilities will be determined at need. Currently, a first grade classes are held in a townhouse
unit that has been rented for the program.
As resources become available a more suitable location will be procured
to enhance the student’s frame of mind in a better learning environment in the
next 6 months.
Budget:
After the initial period of development the determined funds needed to
operate the schools was established as follows:
