Help build houses in Cambodia alongside Habitat for Humanity of East King County employees.
Emily Fortman, director of family services, and bookkeeper Kathy Davis plan to lead 12 adventurers on a Global Village trip to Siem Reap, Cambodia, from June 10-18.
Global Village trips consist of volunteers and a local family working side by side. The family then lives in the home.
In addition to the project, volunteers can experience authentic Cambodian meals and cultural activities.
Volunteers age 16 and older can apply for the slots. Contact Fortman at efortman@habitatekc.org or 869-6007 to learn more. Because space is limited, participants should make reservations as soon as possible.
Since Habitat for Humanity International registered a branch office in Cambodia in January 2003, Habitat for Humanity Cambodia has built more than 1,000 homes and served more than 3,000 families through housing and community development programs in Phnom Penh, Siem Reap, Kandal and Battambang.

I'm glad to see that Habitat for Humanity will be taking a trip to Siem Reap, so that they can see how the regular Khmer are living. They need to see the hardship of a regular Khmer people are going through. Maybe they can help change the situation in Cambodia.
