For me, this volunteer experience was wonderful; the two weeks I spent here were well worth it. Savuth and Savon welcomed us as if we were part of their family, and there were other volunteers there too, which made the experience even better. The kids at the school had such a great vibe, and playing with them was always fun. Sure, sometimes you might go over the agreed-upon volunteer hours, but you have a good time and still have time left over to explore the city. The food they prepare is delicious, and the accommodations were great.

I feel so grateful for this whole experience! Savuth and Savon are great people in all the sense of the word. They are always asking if everything is okay or if we need anything. The kids at the school are the best part of the volunteering. They are sooo extremely loving. They will come hug you make you feel welcome. I made friends that I will keep forever in my heart. I definitely recommend this volunteer. I'll be back one day 🤍

My two weeks at the organization School through Worldpackers were honestly one of the best experiences of my life. From the very first day, everyone was incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful. I immediately felt like part of a family. The children were absolutely amazing — so sweet, full of energy, and eager to learn. Spending time with them every day brought me so much happiness and created memories I will never forget. The atmosphere at the school was positive, supportive, and inspiring all the time. It was the best experience I've ever had and I would recommend it to anyone thinking about volunteering

Dear Isabelle,

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback. We are so happy you enjoyed your time with our ECC family, especially at both our primary and community schools. Your kindness, passion, and connection with the children meant so much to us. We also deeply appreciated you joining my younger sister’s wedding and wearing traditional Khmer clothing so beautifully. It was very special for our family and community.
You will always be part of our ECC family! 🙏🏽💛

It was a very rewarding and fun experience which provided good opportunities to immerse yourself in the Cambodian culture. There were positive and happy interactions with the children in both the classroom and in the schoolyard. I feel it was a very meaningful experience for me and to see the smiles on the children faces each day made it a truly memorable time. The hosts were great and welcoming, and you felt like you were party of their family. We were invited to a Cambodian Wedding which was a great surprise and a fulfilling time which allowed us to mix with the locals. Extremely happy time.
