Klang Leu is a village-district housing several textile factories and a brewery. Its name, which means "stock (Klang)" and "up (Leu)", comes from its original vocation as a warehouse for incoming and outgoing goods from the industrial port of Sihanoukville. The Children's Centre is located on the top of a hill on the outskirts of Sihanoukville. It's a 5 minute walk from the school and close to the local market.

OUR ACTIONS
At the Centre, we work to ensure that all children have access to a better life and a better future, by taking action in 4 priority areas.
EDUCATION AND ACCESS TO SCHOOL
Education is an essential pillar for the emancipation of children living in extreme poverty. At the EKL Centre, we provide all children with a uniform, shoes and school supplies at the beginning of each school year.
We provide tutoring for all children to improve their knowledge of Khmer, Mathematics, English and IT; as well as personalized tutoring for those children who are having the most difficulty with their studies.

25h/week of tutoring

3 meals per day
HEALTH, HYGIENE AND NUTRITION
Every day, we provide 3 fresh, balanced, home-cooked meals and unlimited drinking water for all the children in the Centre.
We pay particular attention to children's access to and use of good hygiene practices, and we provide medical and dental care for all children.
ARTS, SPORTS AND GAMES
Extracurricular activities are at the heart of our programs at Centre. We propose and practice with the children various play activities (painting, drawing), cultural activities (Khmer dancing and singing), and sporting activities (soccer, volleyball, badminton). These recreational activities enable the children to express themselves and develop their creative, physical and social skills.

250 days at the Centre

300 relatives supported
FAMILY SUPPORT
All team members are committed to establishing close links with families, so as to quickly identify crisis situations that can destabilize family equilibrium and put children at risk.
We also provide regular support to other vulnerable families in the Klang Leu district through food and clothing distributions.
We support young mothers in difficulty by providing them with powdered milk supplements as well as baby clothes and items.
