Kep & Solidarity: A generous gesture for the future of Kep's schoolchildren

In the gentle sunshine of Kep, the Kep Education Centre is shining with a new promise of learning and solidarity, thanks to a kind gesture. Princess Sylvia Sisowath, President of the Centre, expressed her deep gratitude to Phnom Penh Accueil (PPA) for their generous donation, a tangible support for local education.

"Sincere thanks to Phnom Penh Accueil for the donation of $300, which we will use to add two school benches and tables to the English room, replacing the chess tables currently in use due to lack of space. In other words, the purchase of two sets in the name of PPA for a total of $240.

This simple but meaningful message is a symbol of cooperation between Cambodia's French-speaking community and educational initiatives in the provinces. The Centre Éducatif de Kep, known for its commitment to inclusive, multilingual education, is now benefiting from a facility that is essential to the quality of its English classes.

PPA's involvement once again illustrates the human and cultural scope of its action - that of a solidarity network which, well beyond the capital, supports educational projects in the regions. These two new sets - sturdy tables and benches - will henceforth bear the name Phnom Penh Accueil, reminding each pupil of the value of sharing and trust between institutions.

For Princess Sylvia Sisowath, this contribution represents ‘moral as well as material encouragement’. In a room that is now better equipped, the young learners will be able to concentrate on discovering the English language in more comfortable and stimulating conditions.

The Kep Education Centre enthusiastically continues to forge links between the country's educational and cultural players, transforming each donation into a lasting act of transmission. Thanks to PPA, a little more of the future is now sitting on these new benches.
