Krousar Thmey Reunion |
Today was the opening ceremony for the 8th Family Festival of Krousar Thmey, a French-founded NGO which has 40+ programs for children at risk. DDP works with them as a partner because they have schools for the deaf in some provinces of Cambodia. These Family Festivals are held every two years. |
Krousar Thmey brings together about 1100 students from their schools all over Cambodia for this festival. The students sleep in classrooms. | |
Justin Smith from DDP speaks to deaf students from the provinces. | |
