Cambodia is in Asia and borders Thailand and Vietnam. It is a poor and shattered country that is still recovering from the terrible genocides incurred from 1975-1979. Under the leadership of 'Pol Pot' the Khmer Rouge claimed nearly 2 million innocent lives! The once beautiful capital city of Phnom Penh is now a seemingly hopeless place of extreme poverty. It is here that thousands of children have been left as orphans or fatherless. This is the site of our ChildCARE Plus headquarters in Cambodia! The program in Cambodia is administered by local missionaries and are dedicated to spreading the love of Jesus and to keeping the children involved in their home setting. The children in the program receive food, medical care, clothing and an opportunity to go to school. Your monthly gift will ensure that your child receives these benefits.
In the moments following a crisis, there is little time to react. ERDO is committed to responding as quickly as possible. By keeping a supply of Emergency Survival Kits on hand, we ensure that when the need arises we will be ready to respond.
