In Kratie Province, the Dolphin School of English—run by the Khmer Association for Development of Countryside—has been a lifeline for underprivileged children since 2016, especially girls who face the toughest barriers to education. Today, more than 170 children, including 105 girls, benefit from free English lessons, personal development opportunities, and the confidence to dream of brighter futures.
The school is far more than a classroom. It is a safe space where hope flourishes, where past students return as teachers, and where each lesson chips away at the cycle of poverty. In 2024, with support from WCF, new latrines and a handwashing area were built, ensuring better hygiene and health for all.
Yet the need continues to grow. Classrooms are overflowing, and to welcome 35 more students next year, two additional rooms must be renovated. With WCF’s help, these bare walls can become vibrant, welcoming spaces—gateways to opportunity, safety, and lasting change.
