CHILDREN AT RISK
Bringing hope and a bright future to children by breaking the poverty cycle through education.
Children at Risk (C@R) is New Life Foundation’s sponsorship program reaching impoverished children and families throughout Cambodia. Many village children have only one parent, or are orphaned. These children grow up in extremely poor conditions as their families struggle to live day to day. Many at-risk children do not attend school because, in order to survive, they must labor in the rice fields with their families. Children who do not receive an education, cannot break free from the cycle of poverty
Working closely with village pastors, C@R brings these at-risk children hope and a bright future. The C@R program provides school supplies for the children to go to school, as well as basic food for the family. With this help, the family is able to release their children from laboring in the fields, and allow them to continue their education. Through this simple sponsorship program we have seen families set free from that cycle.
The monthly sponsorship per child is USD$35 (or USD$420 per annum). We would urge donors to commit to a period of 3 years but if you are unable to do so, a one-year commitment still helps. Our goal is to increase the number of sponsored children from 150 to 200.
