Year-end 2008 Newsletter

Welcome To Homestay Volunteer Teachers Organization! Newsletter for March, April and May 2009

Our Volunteer Teacher, Mr. Clint Peters from United States of America, was giving an English Class to our Students in the evening!

Valuable Friends and HVTO Supporter

2008 was a busy, project filled year for HVTO. Officially we are now in our 2nd Year of Operations and we will continue to do all we can to support our children in our communities!

Personally and for the HVTO, this past year has been marked by significant progress with your assistance and contributions. The HVTO has coordinated the delivery of 9 Water Pumps to very needy families and has been providing Free English Classes to over 200 children in Sophy and Sreth villages. I am very happy to see that we have all these children in the communities getting exposed to the English language. I would like to thank our volunteer teachers who have helped this project so much. Besides the informal English education, additionally, I have coordinated to have two children enrolled in the best school in Siem Reap and it has given us an idea to create scholarship programs in HVTO to support many other children who are looking to get sponsored like these two children. Please wait to read the next newsletter which focus on this program!

Looking at 2009, we are going to be even busier than 2008. So please continue to read the newsletter here to see what we have done in the last 3 months and you will see why I say so! I look forward to the year ahead, as you and we (HVTO) identify even greater opportunities to strengthen our bilateral ties, as well as to work together on mutual areas of interest. We value Cambodia’s commitment to further its social, economic and democratic development.

On the occasion of the Khmer New Year, on behalf of the HVTO, I wish you the happiest New Year ever with Peace, Happiness, Luck and Success. May all your dreams and wishes come true. May you succeed in all that you do?

A hearty and big Thank You! To all who volunteered, supported and donated to HVTO during 2008. HVTO looks to get your supports with upcoming project for 2009.

With kind and warm wishes from Cambodia!
