Cambodian Children's Trust jobs and careers

About Cambodian Children's Trust

At Cambodian Children’s Trust (CCT), we’re not here to rescue families from poverty—we’re here to empower communities to solve it themselves. Our innovative Village Hive model challenges the traditional, dependency-driven approach to charity by investing in and strengthening local public systems. Instead of creating parallel programs that foster reliance on foreign charities, we work alongside communities to co-create solutions that address the root causes of poverty. We believe the cycle of poverty and institutionalisation can be broken—not by delivering handouts but by integrating holistic programs across education, health, child protection, and family strengthening into local public systems to create a sustainable social protection system owned and operated by local communities. What makes us different? 🚫 Breaking the Cycle of Charity: Traditional charity often inadvertently perpetuates dependency. We’re proving there’s a better way—one that restores dignity and prioritises self-reliance. 🏠 Family-Based Care: Every child deserves to grow up in a loving family. We advocate for family-first policies and ensure public systems support vulnerable families to stay together. 🌍 Sustainability Over Charity: From training local social workers to strengthening public schools, our work is focused on creating high-quality public services, not reliance. Through partnerships with governments, communities, and local leaders, CCT is leading a movement to transform the way international development is done. Join us in challenging the status quo and creating a future where families are strong, communities are empowered, and the cycle of charity is broken. 🌏 Learn more: www.cambodianchildrenstrust.org 📩 Contact us to collaborate or support our mission!
