Sam's Birthday Celebration
OIC Cambodia
Sam's Birthday Celebration
Story
Hello friends, family, loved ones, and people I highly respect!
As many of you know a year ago I gave up my life in the US and moved across the world to Cambodia. I went without a place to live, without a job, without an understanding of what was to come. Today I work for OIC Cambodia, a small but dedicated group, that is working to bring speech therapy to the country.
Right now there are 0 Cambodian speech therapists in the country and rough estimates put the population in need of services at 600,000. So we at OIC Cambodia are working to get the services to those people.
Though this may seem like a huge effort, and it is, but what only four years ago was one person working in Cambodia is today over 40 volunteers and staff members around the world working to help get speech therapy services to those most in need.
In an effort to help others find their voice, I am giving up my birthday, February 7th, and asking everyone to donate to my birthday heroes campaign instead.
Won't you help us bring speech therapy services to great kids like Ling below?
All donations big or small are welcome and helpful!
Donations made through this platform are secure and will be remitted directly through to my charity of choice.
Thanks so much for your support!

OIC Cambodia (Education) (Global Development Group – J703N)
OIC Cambodia (Education) is a Global Development Group approved aid and development project (J703N) which aims to address the gap in health services in Cambodia for more than 600,000 people with a communication or swallowing disability.
Communicating with others is at the heart of being human and helping people communicate is at the heart of what we do. We are working towards a Cambodia where each of these people receives the speech therapy services they need to communicate with those around them, and lead full and happy lives.
We have two significant goals to addressing the speech therapy needs in Cambodia:
- To train teachers in speech therapy-based inclusive education to better include children with communication disabilities into schools. This project will benefit 180 teachers and 5,400 children with communication disabilities across six provinces in Cambodia.
- To graduate the first generation of Cambodian speech therapists from a Cambodian university.
OIC Cambodia is proud to be a partner for Project J703N OIC Cambodia (Education) with Global Development Group (ABN: 57 102 400 993), an Australian DFAT approved Non-Government Organisation.
