We prefer to call our homes Love in Action (LIA) family homes, as we create an atmosphere of family for our children. They are homes where the children are loved, supported and cared for as a family.
Our children thrive under such a safe enviroment.
Many children of Cambodia are sold into prostitution, child labour, abuse, abandoned and orphaned at a young age. We want to be a part of saving as many of these children as possible from such a destructive lifestyle.                                                                                 Our children are educated in private schools within their culture and given extra tuition in the English language and social etiquette at home in Love in Action.They also receive music & computer lessons. This helps give them the greatest opportunities for work in their adult life.

As our children progress into early teenage years we see them trained toward the area of work they desire. We network with other organizations to gain work experience in areas of computers, mechanics, sewing, cooking, housekeeping, medical aid, music, teaching and other areas of interest.

At Love in Action we build a happy, healthy and safe environment where children can be just that, children.      

                                                                   
Medical Clinics
Medical clinics are another arm of the work of Love in Action. This is our area of care to the community within areas of Cambodia. Many people die or are debilitated by such simple illnesses. If treated with appropriate medication in time, there is no reason why they should lose limbs, sight, hearing etc, and even die in some cases. At present we have three medical clinics at Srey Rieng where another LIA home is located.

We run these clinics when teams come and visit our LIA work where we provide medical aid for a variety of ailments as well as distribute vitamins. More serious cases are assessed by a Khmer doctor then sent to a hospital. Basic medical care and cleanliness is most necessary in many situations.
Love in Action is a part of building a future and hope for the people of Cambodia
