Future Cambodia Fund is a non-profit organisation with the core aim of empowering disadvantaged young people, their families and communities.
Vision
Every child should have the right to a childhood, to education, and to protection
History
A non-profit, non-government organisation, Future Cambodia Fund was formed in Cambodia in 2004, by Leigh Mathews. Future Cambodia Fund was established in response to the lack of support, services and educational opportunities for children and young people in Cambodia. Future Cambodia Fund was formed out of the belief that every child has the right to a childhood, to education, and the right to be protected and nurtured.
Future Cambodia Fund has four main objectives which guide our work:
Community Capacity Building: To encourage community participation and ownership through capacity building and advocacy.
Education and Training: To identify and provide appropriate education and training options and to support young people and their families to pursue these opportunities.
Networking and Support: To strengthen the overall response to Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVC) through integrated networking and support.
Awareness: To educate and inform young Australians about current issues in the developing world and encourage them to engage in activities resulting in positive change locally and globally.
