Angkor Association
for the Disabled

There are many reasons for not giving to AAD. Maybe you know of worthier causes. More high-profile causes. Perhaps you think what you can give won't make a difference. AAD is neither high-profile nor cash-rich. At the moment, we're seeking corporate sponsors for our major projects, and seed money from individual donors.

You'd be surprised by how far a dollar goes out here. It's a day's food, or several days' of bottled water, or essential medical supplies. Five dollars buys a much-needed mosquito net, helping stop the spread of malaria and Dengue fever. Or it's a month's education.

Whatever you can give, it's our people who benefit. People like Chen Roeurn, who suffers from a congenital disability, Naim, who got a very nasty surprise working out in the fields, or Sothea, who is a lifetime wheelchair user after a horrific traffic accident.

We're glad to receive charity. For us, it's not a dirty word. Your charity, your donation, directly helps our people to help themselves. We're delighted to get your order for the beautiful artworks we produce. Every little bit helps to make the dream real. That dream again? That our people can rejoin the world with the skills and confidence they grew at AAD.

We're family, so we'll be sorry to see them go. But that's what we're here for. And that's where you come in ...

It's easy to get active! - buy a CD or make a donation right now, become a volunteer, visit us in Siem Reap to lend a hand, or to purchase artwork.

No money to give, but intending to visit Siem Reap? Interested in learning more about volunteering at AAD? We are always interested in hearing from travellers who are interested in working with us for periods of time. Contact us to discuss how you can help
