Join Us

We welcome volunteers and interns who are adaptable, open-minded, and passionate about working with children, families, and teachers in Cambodia. A friendly, outgoing nature is important, along with respect for local laws and customs.

Experience in teaching, social work, early education, sports training, curriculum development, IT, community service, or agriculture is especially valuable.

But even if your background is different, if you’re willing to learn and committed to helping, we’d love to hear from you.

We ask volunteers to commit to at least one month, with 3–6 months preferred, to ensure meaningful impact. Singles, couples, and families (with children) are welcome on a case-by-case basis.

Our main programs run in Kampong Speu & Siem Reap

Cambodia is a developing nation, so conditions are basic, but improving. Roads connect our project locations, safe accommodations are available, and clean drinking water is provided. The climate is warm year-round with two main seasons: Wet and Dry. Maintaining good hygiene is important to avoid tropical illnesses.

Hear From Our Volunteers

The month we spent with Family Care Cambodia really was a very special experience that we will forever cherish. We have both grown and learnt in so many different ways… We want to sincerely thank you, for your help in making this possible.

– Ryan, New Zealand

The different kind of experiences and knowledge that I have gained during my internship with Family Care Cambodia are indeed valuable. Besides the skill sets that I have acquired with the help of the teachers, the kind of personal growth I experienced is something that I value a lot.

– Min, Singapore

I am so fortunate that the universe brought us together and am constantly thinking of ways to help and to get more involved. You have taught me that so little is so much and that is a valuable lesson.

– Monique, Canada

This internship was definitely an enriching and rewarding experience, one that widened my parochial perspective of life and living. It shed light on the chasm between a first world nation and a third world ASEAN neighbor. The difference was very ostensible in all aspects; from culture, language to societal norms and expectations.

– Amythest, Singapore

The children at the school in Siem Reap were smart, hard working, & enthusiastic about learning – it was so refreshing! Volunteering challenged me to see the world in new ways & to truly acknowledge the suffering that many people around the world face every day. Those two weeks were some of the most formative weeks of my life. I will never be the same…thankfully.

– Heather, U.S.A

I can’t begin to tell you how much we loved being a part of your small community. The girls won our hearts and the work you have done is incredible. I am so impressed by all you have accomplished and the things you continue to do for the girls.

– Debbie, U.S.A

Such a fond farewell at Raksa and Thida’s – so please convey once again how much I appreciated their hospitality throughout. I wanted to express my thanks for all everyone did to make me so happy during my stay! These students are our future, and if their classmates are half as sharp and motivated as they are, I have no fears for the future of Cambodia.

– Marilyn, Switzerland
