The Buddhist library promotes the practice of compassion through its outreach work under Project Cambodia.
Cambodia is a Buddhist country whose kind and gentle people have experienced great suffering and hardship in recent years.
The project was initiated by the Buddhist library in 2005. Unlike many charities where donations can be gobbled up in administration costs, 100% of donations for Project Cambodia go directly to actual projects. The administration costs are funded by the Buddhist Library Trustees.
We welcome donations to Project Cambodia and all donations are tax-deductible.
The projects we have initiated and supported in Cambodia include:
Water Tanks
This is by far Project Cambodia’s main focus, providing clean drinking water to villages. Children in these villages used to share well water with farm animals and the project funds the building of concrete water tanks in various parts of Cambodia.
Education
Many Cambodian children miss out on government schooling. Project Cambodia project sets up and administers schools and educational classes, providing non-formal education in the form of skills to help Cambodian children find employment in the growing economy. Classes include computer skills, English language and sewing.
Dental Clinics
Project Cambodia has a committed team of dentists, volunteer dentists and dental assistants who offer dental treatment to patients in various areas in Cambodia. This includes a mobile clinic to access to more rural areas of Cambodia. For more information about Project Cambodia Dental Aid, click here.
