About Education First Cambodia

Education First Cambodia supports highly talented female university students who would not otherwise have the opportunity to get a degree. The young women, among the brightest in the country and among the poorest, come from rural areas far away from the universities in Phnom Penh. Their impoverished families, who struggled so their daughters could complete high school, are unable to support their daughters' continued education so far from home. With Education First Cambodia's support, these young women attend the the most respected universities in Cambodia. In addition, Education First Cambodia provides the young women with a living stipend, computers, computer training, daily English classes, training in critical thinking, dormitory space and medical care.
