| Who We Are: The Landmine Relief Fund is a non profit NGO dedicated to supporting the work of Cambodian Self Help Demining, the Cambodian Landmine Museum, and its founder, Aki Ra. We are specifically dedicated to assisting them in their work of eradicating landmines throughout the country of Cambodia and caring for the children living at the Landmine Museum Relief Center. How the Money is Used: The money we collect, from supporters around the world, is used to support the work of Cambodian Self Help Demining, Aki Ra's new demining organization. Our charter also allows us to support the work of the Cambodian Landmine Museum and other projects stemming from either CSHD or the CLLMM. The LMRF has 2 staff members living in Cambodia. They are working with CSHD and the Museum to assist in implementing our mission and helping CSHD and the Museum and Relief Center meet theirs. Cambodian Self-help Demining NGO In 2008 we accomplished our task of establishing a new demining NGO in Cambodia, run by and for Khmers to clear landmines and UXOs in low priority areas around the Kingdom.

| CAMBODIAN SELF HELP DEMINING UPDATE: CSHD is working a new field, full of unexploded ordinance (UXOs). This field was an old storage area for the Lon Nol regime and is covered with litterally thousands of unexploded rounds of artillery, much of it, white phosphorous, (or willie peter to you vets). We will clear about 5 hectares of perhaps a 10 square kilometer field. When it is cleared we will move 16 families in to farm the land. We will continue to clear this field over a number of years, alternating between it and other 'low priority' villages we have been asked to assist. Our budget is running about $16,000 per month, so any help you can give is GREATLY appreciated. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CSHD UPDATE - Washington, DC September 12, 2011 The Landmine Relief Fund was today awarded a $100,000 grant from the United States Department of State, Office of Weapons Removal and Abatement. This grant will be used to assist CSHD in its demining operations in 'low priority' villages across the Kingdom. The grant will cover approximately half the cost of running the CSHD demining operations in the coming 12 months. The balance of the funding is provided by the Landmine Relief Fund, an American charity and the Vietnam Veterans Mine Clearing Team, a group of Australian veterans of the Vietnam War. |
