A SCHOOL IN CAMBODIA

In 2006, my husband and I built a school in Cambodia through the American Assistance for Cambodia program.  In 2009, we went to dedicate the school, and saw many more needs, the greatest being a dormitory and a well.  There is no water at the school of 500 children, and some sleep in shacks behind the school.  We are working now to raise funds for these two projects.

We are also working with the William Penn Charter School in Philadelphia to partner with the Caramanico School in Ratanakiri, Cambodia.  Through huge fund raising efforts by the students at Penn Charter,  we are making progress toward building the William Penn Peace House dormitory.

Fifty percent of the purchase proceeds of any print or painting will go to realize these projects, all being tax deductible contributions to American Assistance for Cambodia.
