How You Can Help

The Landmine Relief Fund (LMRF) supports two Cambodian NGOs:

• Cambodian Self Help Demining (CSHD) – CSHD manages three programs:

• • One demining program with a field team of 16
    
    • • The demining team works for the Cambodian Mine Action Committee to clear recognized minefields

• • Two Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) teams – four persons on each team
    
    • • EOD teams respond to items found by villagers on a daily basis

• • One Explosive Ordnance Risk Education (EORE) team – four persons
    
    • • EORE teams conduct classes in schools and villages to raise awareness among local people about the threats that await them  Most injuries in Cambodia come from unexploded ordnance, disproportionately affecting children

• Rural School Support Organization (RSSO) – RSSO manages three programs:

• • Rural School Village Program (RSVP).
    
    • • RSVP builds primary schools in rural Cambodia on or near old minefields, where infrastructure could not be introduced until fighting ended in the late 1990s

• • The Together Project (TTP)
    
    • • TTP operates an organic farm where it teaches local farmers, students, and school directors to cultivate sustainable, organic crops. They currently teach:
        
        • • Mushroom farming that can increase monthly wages by over 150%
        • • TTP operates with an MOU with the Royal University of Agriculture in Phnom Penh
        • • Greenhouse farming to grow high-profit crops not typically grown in Cambodia

    • • TTP has a classroom at its 1-hectare farm, and a dormitory so people from distant provinces can stay at the farm to learn
    • • TTP operates with an MOU with the Royal University of Agriculture

• • WholeFit Cambodia (WFC)
    
    • • WFC teaches physical education instruction to teachers from the schools that RSSO has built
    • • All teachers train at the WFC facility in Siem Reap; WFC pays for transportation and housing.  Each teacher is given a meal allowance and they return with equipment to implement the program.

• • The CFO has a BS in Accounting and an MS in Auditing
