35,000 Cambodian Children in Care
The Cambodian Ministry of Social Affairs has found that 35,374 children and young people are living in orphanages and other residential care institutions, many of them unregistered or never inspected. The Ministry discovered that, of children in care, 925 had a disability, 576 had HIV / AIDS, 270 had received“ detoxification services” for addictive substances, and 252 were victims of child trafficking. One out of every 350 children under 18 lives in an orphanage, but almost 80 % of adolescents in orphanages have a living mother or father. The Minister of Social Affairs suggested that‘ parents’ living conditions are poor, so parents send them to centres hoping their children could have a better education rather than stay with them.’
CCC’ s Children of Cambodia project supports a group of 15 children whose parents cannot afford to feed them adequately. With our assistance, these children receive a cooked lunch each day and the pastor who supports them and their families ensures that they attend school and keep out of the clutches of traffickers, pimps and drug dealers.
