Background
Plan International was founded in 1937 to provide food, accommodation and education for children whose lives had been disrupted by war. The two cofounders, a journalist and a refugee worker, conceived the idea of a personal relationship between a child and a sponsor – a model that puts the child at the centre and today remains the core of what Plan International does. The idea that problems faced by many children can be reflected in the story of one child’s life helps people to see the human face of poverty and, more importantly, how they can help. Plan International came to Cambodia in 2002. Plan International Cambodia signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation and later with the Ministry of Rural Development, Ministry of Health and Ministry of Education Youth and Sports. Plan is now working in the provinces of Siem Reap, Tboung Khmum, Ratanak Kiri and Stung Treng
