Krousar Thmey
CAMBODIA
Krousar Thmey was the first Cambodian
foundation to assisting disabled children.
They provide disabled Cambodian children
with educational materials that are in
harmony with their beliefs. The
materials are respectful of the Cambodian
traditions and beliefs. Their purpose is to
help children develop and blossom into
responsible adults. Krousar Thmey takes
great care that its aid neither creates
disharmony between a child and his relatives
and friends, nor creates privileged or
dependent children.
Krousar Thmey was the first NGO to propose
education for deaf children. They had to
develop the tools necessary for good
communication, so teams worked on adapting
American Sign Language for use in the Khmer
language.
