MEKONG KAMPUCHEA KIDS PROJECT (MKK) 

TWO COMPONENTS OF MKK PROJECT

TECHNICAL AND VOCATION EDUCATION AND TRAINING (TVET)

Our Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) programs are designed to equip students with practical, in-demand skills that align with Cambodia’s job market.

CHILD EDUCATION 

The Child Education (CE) program supports underprivileged children in Kampong Cham with scholarships, academic and cultural education, and early childhood care to promote their overall development and success in school.

TVET 

Our Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) programs offer hands-on training in key sectors such as Hospitality(Kitchen, Food & Beverage, Housekeeping, Front Office), Electronics (Air Conditioner & CCTV Repair), Mechanics(Car & Motorbike Repair), and Beauty Services (Make-up & Barbering). 

To ensure our trainees are truly prepared for the workforce, we go beyond technical instruction. Students benefit from free accommodation, allowances, healthcare, and a supportive living environment. They also engage in soft skills, life skills, and preparatory classes that boost their confidence and readiness for employment. 

Our structured curriculum combines practical learning with thorough assessments, ensuring every graduate is job-ready. More than just training, our programs foster a sense of community—students live and learn together, sharing experiences and growing as a team.

CHILD EDUCATION 

Child Education (CE) supports students at two drop-in-centers by providing the scholarship packages, teaching dancing, Khmer traditional music, and teaching Khmer, Mathematics, and English. These efforts aim to help young students from Kampong Cham province for their school studies. Additionally, the CE program offers an Early Childhood Care and Development (ECCD) kindergarten for children aged 3 to 5 from poor families, giving them the opportunity to start early education. This initiative helps foster their physical, emotional, and spiritual development.

Apsara center 

Provides training in traditional Khmer music, dance and English, helping to preserve Cambodia’s cultural heritage while providing students with valuable skills and confidence. 

Scholarships 

The MKK Project provides scholarships to students from seven communes in Kampong Cham Province. These scholarships help reduce the financial burden on families, enabling students to continue their education and achieve academic success. By supporting their schooling, the project provides greater educational opportunities and encourages students to reach their full potential.

The Early Childhood Care and Development (ECCD) Program

The Early Childhood Care and Development (ECCD) program is a core program of the MKK project. It plays an important role in providing children from disadvantaged families with access to quality early education. By establishing strong educational foundations at a young age, the program supports children in developing essential skills and positive behaviors that promote lifelong learning and social well-being.
Additional Support: The Mekong Kampuchea Kids (MKK) Project also provides students with essential learning materials, snacks, and opportunities to participate in a variety of extracurricular activities. This holistic approach ensures that students receive well-rounded support, addressing both their academic needs and personal development. By nurturing their physical, social, and emotional well-being, the project helps create a positive and encouraging environment for learning and growth.
