Breaking the poverty cycle through education is the fastest way to help people all over the world out of poverty. By giving people a hand up rather than a hand out, CRST is developing Cambodia's future leaders. Since 2011, CRST has been sponsoring bright students from poor rural families, to study at the best high school and university in Siem Reap. CRST is unique for a number of reasons: 1. Our NGO is managed on the ground in Cambodia by our senior students, who are mentored by a group of Australian business volunteers 2. Our students receive the best education possible and in return, contribute back to society 3. Our NGO sponsors our students’ education, health and dental care, life-skill courses and monthly living allowances 4. We have no overheads and 100% of all funds are used for education and community projects The Cambodia Rural Students Foundation LTD is an Australian Government registered Tax Deductible Gift Recipient and charity - ABN 71613161158. Our mission is to provide education to rural students in Cambodia who may not have access to it otherwise.
