Mission Statement

Through this program, the CICC is once again walking the extra mile supporting Cambodia and its people through sustainable development initiatives. This unwavering support extends to the weakest layer of Cambodian society as we believe all Cambodians are born to be great. With such a belief, and carrying sustainability at heart, we have decided to hold no efforts and support Tiny Toones in their important mission, sustaining the school’s activities, and allowing it to serve its communities for generations to come.

Tiny Toones impact on its community is undeniable, a fact that is strengthened by 19 years of hard work and dedication, providing four generations of at-risk children with a positive environment and free schooling. Over 80% of Tiny Toones’ students successfully re-enter the public school system and grow to lead stable and productive lives. Tiny Toones’ programs address not only immediate needs but also long-term development by cultivating resilience, ambition, and a sense of community. Their efforts serve as a ray of hope for underprivileged children and are a testament to the power of creative education in breaking cycles of poverty and neglect.
