Getting Involved with CCF



Sponsorship

Sponsoring a child is the most direct, valuable and rewarding way of supporting our work. The CCF's sponsorship program allows you to fully fund an individual child, contributing to the real cost of that child's education and care. Sponsorships allow the CCF to continue its fundamental operations: helping kids out of situations of poverty and abuse and into a whole new world of love, learning and opportunity. Sponsors become an integral part of the CCF family and follow their child's progress, maintaining regular contact with their child.
The program provides comfort and encouragement for the child, a moving and rewarding experience for the sponsor, and vital revenue for the CCF as an organization.

See our sponsorship page for more details and write to support@cambodianchildrensfund.org for a full Sponsor Info Kit.
Fundraising

A great way to support the CCF from your home country is to do fundraising activities for us. We really value the individuals who do their bit to raise money for the kids. For individuals wanting to help, the most effective fundraising methods in the past have involved the fundraisers' families, friends, co-workers, classmates and other acquaintances. Fundraisers have done activities such as chocolate sales, jewelry auctions, parties and stands at school fairs.

Write to support@cambodianchildrensfund.org for more information and to receive a fundraising information pack. We can also provide things like brochures and posters!

Job & Volunteer Opportunities

We get many offers from wonderful people hoping to volunteer. We really appreciate your enthusiasm and support. For staff positions, the CCF tries to always employ Cambodian nationals. We do at times take on international volunteers, however these always fit very specific criteria.

Sometimes positions become available in our Cambodian facilities for international volunteers willing to stay at least 4-6 months and offering particular skills and experience relevant to our operations and our program needs.

Criteria for volunteering in Cambodia
  • We have fulltime childcare and education staff to look after the children so we only accept volunteers who bring particular skills or expertise
  • Areas in which volunteers may help are:
    • Health/medical - particularly paediatric care and community health
    • Education - experienced English teachers, pedagogical specialists, early childhood development, remedial education, human rights education, leadership training, career orientation, vocational training
    • Fundraising, grant writing, reporting or marketing/communications
    • Other areas relevant to our program or needs
  • All volunteers must commit to 4-6 months at least depending on the project area. Occasionally we accept shorter term volunteer except under very exceptional circumstances or in the case of volunteers with skills required for specific project.
  • Also, please understand that we tend to recruit volunteers who are already in Cambodia so that we can meet in person.
  • In keeping with our Child Protection Policy the CCF will ask any successful candidates for background checks, a current police check and two character/professional references with contact details. All staff and volunteers are asked to sign our Code of Conduct and declare any prior investigations or convictions with regard to allegations of child abuse or suggesting unsuitability for working with children.

If you can meet these criteria please send a CV and a short cover letter (or simply the body of an email) explaining your skills, motivations and expectations: what you can offer, why you are doing this, and what you would expect to achieve or receive from the experience.

Send your application to volunteer@cambodianchildrensfund.org

Someone from our Phnom Penh facility will contact you if there are any possibilities.
