Website Administration

Patrik has been managing Kidshelp’s web infrastructure on a voluntary basis since around 2015, this includes the website, mail configuration and cloud storage. In the beginning, the main task was to upgrade the website to a new, more modern WordPress framework. Volunteering to support a good cause is very important to him.

Even though professionally not focused on web development itself, Patrik is, however, overall engaged in the IT sector. In private life, he is mostly active as a 3D and texture artist.

Secretary & support of the volunteer program

Andre traveled to Cambodia for 3 weeks in the summer of 2011 to help teach English at the Khemara Kidshelp School (KKS) as a volunteer. This experience was so special to him that he volunteered at KKS two more times (in 2012 for 3 weeks and in 2015 for 2 months). After he was able to get to know and accompany the projects of Kidshelp Kambodscha e.V. on site several times, he first became a member of the association and finally was elected to the board in 2019. Andre travels to Cambodia at regular intervals to see the progress of the various projects on site.

Focal point university students

Patrick Byron worked in Bonn, Germany for Deutsche Post DHL where he started supporting the work of Kidshelp Kambodscha e.V. back in 2010. On retiring to United Kingdom, he wished to continue and increase his support of the work of the NGO in Cambodia. Since Patrick wanted it to be easier for people from England to donate to Kidshelp, he successfully registered Kidshelp Cambodia – England in October 2017 and acts as the focal point for donations from England ever since.

Tharith is a fully trained English teacher for high schools. Since 2008 he has been teaching at “Serey Mongkol High School.” Even then he stood out as an outstanding and very dedicated teacher. Nevertheless, in 2011 he obtained a job at a private school in the provincial capital Takheo. This position gave him the opportunity  to improve his teaching skills even more.

Therefore, we made an effort to hire him as the new deputy principal after the resignation of our former principal Sen Phakdey.
