Humanitarian Aid: Rumdoul Charitable Foundation Supports Displaced Students and Teachers
PHNOM PENH, February 17, 2026 — In a show of solidarity for those caught in the crossfire of recent border tensions, the Rumdoul Charitable Foundation (RCF) has donated funds and food supplies to the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport. The aid is specifically earmarked for education staff, teachers, and refugee students who have been forcibly displaced by the conflict along the Cambodia-Thai border.
Immediate Relief for the Border Community
The contribution from RCF includes:
- Financial Aid: A donation of $750 USD to assist with emergency logistical needs.
- Food Supplies: Essential food items to ensure nutritional security for displaced families.
- Targeted Support: The resources are being directed toward the front-line educational staff and students who have had their schooling interrupted by the regional instability.
A Call for Continued Support
While the RCF contribution provides a vital boost, the Ministry of Education has emphasized that the need for aid remains high. The MoEYS continues to operate as a central hub for donations, actively seeking:
- Educational Materials: School supplies to help students resume learning in temporary shelters.
- Essential Commodities: Basic necessities, clothing, and hygiene products.
- Food Items: Non-perishable goods to support long-term relief efforts across the affected provinces.
The Ministry remains committed to transporting these donations directly to the provinces where they are needed most, ensuring that the “right to education” is protected even in times of crisis.
