COCD Cambodia Logo

The Cambodian Organization for Children and Development (COCD) is a child focused development organization which operates in remote areas of Cambodia. COCD aims to improve the quality of life of vulnerable and abused children in Cambodia through tackling structural causes of poverty, inequality, social exclusion and child abuse. They say it takes a village to raise children - COCD helps around 3,000 of Cambodia’s poorest families each year. COCD works directly with vulnerable children, their families and communities.

Founded in 2005 as a small shelter in Phnom Penh, COLT provided temporary and long-term care for children that could no longer live at home. Within three years, COLT opened a school and started providing community children English and computer classes. In 2015, COLT opened the gates of its community centre to support families.

COLT is a member of Family Care First.

CARE International works around the globe to save lives, defeat poverty and achieve social justice, putting women and girls at the center. CARE International operates in more than 90 countries around the world, running poverty-fighting programmes and delivering life-saving aid in 79 developing countries.

Care for Children partners with governments in Asia to help create a positive alternative to institutional care through local family-based care for disadvantaged children. Care For Children’s vision is to see a million children moved from institutional care into families.

Care Leavers Network Europe logo

The Care Leavers Network is the first European network of children raised in a host community or foster care. The care leavers have decided to get together to make their institutions feel stronger, improve the reception system and help each other.

The CLA is a user-led charity run by care leavers for care leavers. Its mission is to bring together the voices of care leavers of all ages to improve the current care system, improve the quality of life of care leavers throughout their lives and change for the better society’s perception of people who have been in care as children.

 

The Care Leavers’ Foundation was founded in December 1999 by 3 people who each put five pounds in the centre of the table as a beginning to the emerging concept for a significant national fund to be set up for care leavers.It would act in place of "the bank of absent mum and dad". The simple idea, that this fund would make grants to care leavers, was based on one overarching principle; that if a reasonable parent would help out in the situation described, then so would we. Since then The Foundation has achieved national recognition and made grants to hundreds of care leavers.
