Background
The Morning Volunteer of Youth Cambodia (MVYC) as established in 2011 by Ms. Um Dina and Ms Yim Somaly .
MVYC is a non political, non religious, non government organization. We provide education, vocational training and support to the poorest communities in Cambodia, with a focus on girls, orphans and street children. Many of these families are living with HIV/AIDs or other serious health issues and are the very poorest communities in Cambodia.
MVYC has outreach centers at the city dump site, in the slum areas of Phnom Penh and on the outskirts of the city where the people from the slums are being relocated as the city is redeveloped. We also run vocational training for girls in dressmaking, cookery, and beauty and hairdressing at our training center in Phnom Penh.
Through education and training, we aim to equip the children and young people to access regular jobs and become self supporting, improving their quality of life and that of their families.
