Thanks to the many wonderful volunteers who have visited and worked with us, we’ve gone on field trips, built shelves, held slum-wide community activities, and more.
Volunteers revisit us after years to check on how Riverkids and our beneficiaries are doing. These visits are representative of the good memories they’ve shared with us. Read an account here.
Below are a few accounts of various volunteer experiences with Riverkids:
- Short one-day field trip excursions with a class in Phnom Penh
