Join the adventure of child sponsorship with Children of the Mekong & Le Petit Depot!

Since 2017, Le Petit Depot has been working alongside Children of the Mekong so that the 110 schoolchildren at the Sisophon centre in Cambodia can go to school!

This year, get involved with us!

By sponsoring a child, you will enable them to go to school in Southeast Asia ( Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia and the Philippines) and their avatar will join the virtual classroom below! 20 children are waiting for you 😊

Grace is sponsored, a huge thank you to her new sponsor!

HOW DOES CHILD SPONSORSHIP WORK?

Sponsoring a child is S$50 per month. Depending on the needs of the sponsored child, your sponsorship can finance school supplies and uniforms, school transport, extra lessons and hygiene kits.

Part of the sponsorship can also be used to buy food for the family. You are therefore providing valuable help that benefits the whole family. Find out more about child sponsorship.

Sending letters to your sponsored child

Your sponsored child will be supported by your family until they finish school!

Sponsorship is a long-term commitment to a child that you support. However, you can, of course, stop your sponsorship at any time. In this case, we undertake to give priority to finding a new sponsor for this child.

How is used your sponsorship money

You write and receive the first letters!

On average, sponsors receive two to three letters a year. Sponsorship is a lesson in patience, in this age of immediacy! Your sponsored child will be delighted to get to know you better, do not hesitate to send pictures and postcards!

FAQ

Stephanie

I’ve been sponsoring Namphon since 2007.

She was a 6-year-old girl, shy and with learning difficulties. 10 years and many exchanges of letters later, I met her in Laos: a young girl who was radiant, spontaneous and keen to become a teacher. An impressive evolution!

From Europe to Asia, transparency, seriousness and enthusiasm are the terms that best describe Children of the Mekong. There is such a human quality in each of the members who make up this organisation! The desire to take part in this adventure is necessarily contagious!
