overview

The Sunrise Children's Villages are two orphanages located in Siem Reap and Phnom Penh, Cambodia. The Australia Cambodia Foundation started in September 1993, following the first visit by Geraldine and a friend in 1993. The orphanages are now known as Sunrise Children's Villages and they care for hundreds of orphaned or disadvantaged Cambodian children. Plans are in place to open a third Sunrise Children's Village in Sihanoukville.

The Australian corporation, Computershare, has generously donated more than US$500,000 to realize this dream for a third centre, through its worldwide staff giving program, for which we are very grateful. This centre will give a home, medical care and education to more than 180 HIV affected children.

Your support of these orphanages through child sponsorship is an amazing gift that continues to give life, hope, education, health and a future to those who had nothing.
