I'm making a difference by raising money for a cause close to my heart. Please support me by donating.

My Story

1 out of every 29 children born in Cambodia will die before his or her fifth birthday–one of the highest child mortality rates in the region. Our team has members from all the non-medical units at Angkor Hospital for Children. This includes Finance, Purchasing, Logistics, House Keeping, Security, IT, HR, Drivers, Maintenance and Registration. We do not provide care but we are behind the scenes in all aspects of the hospital. We know how important it is that medical supplies are on hand, that the ventilators are working properly, the floors are cleaned and the right patient file is ready for the appointment. We work tirelessly to make sure the hospital is clean, and that hygiene standards are maintained. We guard the gates to make sure the children are safe and queues are orderly. We make sure the electricity is on and the water is running otherwise so many other parts of the hospital just do not work! We negotiate with suppliers for the best prices. 
We work so hard every day but this year we are going an extra kilometre or 10 to try to raise money to help support our hospital and the amazing work done here. 
Many of the 170,000 treatments provided each year at Angkor Hospital for Children are for preventable illnesses. Poverty is a root cause of a majority of the most commonly seen illnesses at Angkor Hospital for Children: lack of clean drinking water, malnutrition and low prevalence of good sanitation and hygiene practices all contribute to preventable child illness and death. 
Since opening, AHC has provided over two million medical treatments, education to thousands of Cambodian health workers and health education to thousands of families. On average, 500 children and their families come to the hospital each day. We all work at AHC and see first hand, every single day just how much it helps people in our country.  We are running (some are walking...) to support the daily running costs of AHC as it strives to improve the healthcare of Cambodia's children. Please donate to help us reach our fundraising target. Every donation really does make a difference.
