The Learning Team

After visiting the Bright Future Kids Home, we walked down a short path. There we found people that I will never forget–the children at the New Life Orphanage. I had so much fun with these kids- instead of going for just a few hours, we went as often as we could. All I can say is that after spending time there, I can’t wait to go back!

I agree. The future is brighter because of the students at the Bright Future Kids Home in Phnom Penh. Please click on “read more” to see why.

From the moment I arrived on Saturday, Phnom Penh literally took my breath away. Here are some of the reasons why:

What does it take to create partnerships that result in the building of over 400 rural schools? What does it take to create a free press newspaper? What does it take to start an orphanage and a hospital? We are about to find out.

When it comes to service learning, the Overlake School, its faculty and its students, are definitely role models. They are the only US school that I am aware of that has put together an ongoing and meaningful relationship with a sister school on the other side of the world!
