Due to adverse many social circumstances many Cambodian children have become helpless orphans. These children need immediate assistance if they are to be prevented from ending up on the streets with no hope for future. RCDP International, in collaboration with various social work organizations, is providing resources to look after these children. Volunteers will work with the children, teach them, play with them and most importantly provide them love and attention that they rightfully deserve.
As a volunteer, you will stay with the children and help them with their day-to-day activities. You can help them with homework and teach them English. Also, you can organize fun activities for them to participate in.
While there are no specific skills and qualification are required to volunteer in this project, volunteers are expected to be flexible, resourceful and patient as well as possess a passion and love for children.
RCDP International arranges room, meals and supervision for volunteers during the entire volunteer program. Depending upon the location of the project, volunteers will either stay in our guesthouse or with host family. Placements are usually in Phnom Penh or in/close to a provincial capital. Our Phnom Penh guesthouse is located in the center of the city (a notable Cambodian tourist city) near the Olympic Stadium and the Orussey Market, equipped with necessary modern amenities.
Our host families are very friendly and hospitable. They look forward to learning more about your home-country, culture and life. Whether you stay in our guesthouse or with host family, we manage clean but simple accommodations with a separate room (occasionally shared with other volunteers), shared bathroom with cold water (usually no hot water is available) and a fan. You will be provided with local meals thrice a day. Usually, volunteers have breakfast in either a small restaurant, with host families or at work. Some volunteers have lunch at the orphanage. If a volunteer has special dietary requirements (e.g. as a vegetarian or vegan), we recommend you stay in our guesthouse and not with host family, as meat is the basis of most local Cambodian meals.

The mission of RCDP-Nepal is to encourage international volunteers to contribute in sustainable community development that benefits the underprivileged and extremely poor. By developing the places and the communities, the volunteers are also developing themselves and learning new perspectives and ideas that will ultimately change their lives.
