哪位最近要去柬埔寨？请帮忙拜访吴哥窟里的学校

三年前，去了吴哥窟。
念念不忘的，不是吴哥窟本身，而是一个在吴哥窟里的学校。

不幸，由于连年战争
柬埔寨是世界上儿童失学率最高的国家之一
幸运，由于吴哥窟的存在
柬埔寨尤其暹粒附近受到全世界NGO和个人基金会的关注

碰巧或是刻意
遇到两所境况截然不同的学校

<leaving microsoft to change the world>
john wood的自传，说他如何离开微软后创立Room to Read这个NGO的故事
从暹粒去女皇宫路上途经一小学
正是一所由美国个人基金会赞助，并由Room to Read牵头建立图书馆，
各方面资源都相当完善的学校（如校舍、师资、书本）

反观另一所，虽就在吴哥窟里面，没有任何官方资助，只靠零星的游客资助过活
仅一僧人和一个22岁的志愿老师，他们却收养了22个在吴哥附近流浪的孤儿
无法形容住处如何破旧，校舍根本谈不上是校舍，书本根本谈不上是书本
志愿老师一人充当老师、父母、厨师...
这些孩子何等不幸又何等幸运，而游吴哥的三天遇无数在外兜售贩卖讨钱流浪的孩子
生活不容易，尤其当看不到未来时
但不放弃，就有希望，他们过得艰苦，却比很多人都快乐

而任何一个去吴哥的人，请你们花40$三天参拜吴哥这伟大的历史遗迹的同时
也抽其中很少的一点时间拜访一下这所学校，不管是送去物资还是拜访本身
都或许是比拜访吴哥更直接的心灵净化。

Hi friend!I very happy that I known you and met you last time at my school in Angkor Wat. I want tell to you about Poor children and Orphan, Now I have 22 children living with me, they are come from other the places, some children so far from here, some children near here. And some children no have parents because their parents die by Boom and HIV and sick or no food for eat, some children have parents but their parents very poor can not support them and broken eyes, lag and hand are destroyed by Boom. So I see like this I pity them I take the children to live in Angkor Wat Pagoda with me.
And than I made a School for teach them, and than I provided some book, pens, pencil, and some clothes for them but only one me a teacher volunteer and earn money support them, Unfortunatainly we are no sponsor. You know all the children are very happy when they are living here. You see! when you visited in Siem Reap, especially at my school, they are look like have a new life again. So we are thank you so much for your kindness to help us. Do you know? At here very hard because no sponsor so I no have money for support them, sometime we are no food to eat and no everything for study, so I hope you only to find sponsor for us and help also. If you pity them and me please help sponsor in one month, we are need 500$ only for repair here everyday to make their life in the future good! You know they are need you so much for help more. However only me can not help them enough, so need you help us also.
Byetheways! I Rent the teacher traditional Khmer music to teaching them, I selected 8 children to study, one children pay 100$ still can play well. I think that I make it good for them when they are grow up they can show possibility to earn money by them self. But now not yet pay money for teacher, he is request money from me but I no have money enough give him. He told me that if I no money he will stop teach them. The children see like this they are so sad. We are hope donation only for buy some food and everything for study but still not enough. So we need you help us so much. We are hope that you are soon please!All the children and me wish you good for you and god bless you every time.
Best regard.
From poor children and orphan at Angkor Wat Pagoda (Cambodia).
