My name is Pum Rithy and I was born in a poor family in a rural village in Kompong Cham Province. My mother always encouraged me to study to make a good future.
My second brother and his wife decided to run a local NGO called Green Gecko Project. So I worked there as a food delivery and a cleaner. And finally, I was promoted to Child Group Leader.
At that time, I continued my bachelor’s degree in accounting at the University of Southeast Asia ( USEA ).
After I worked as a group leader for many years, I was promoted to Operation Manager at Green Gecko Project. In that position, I work very closely with children and their parents to communicate with them.
I’m very lucky that I could join REACH as a bookkeeper and administration. I love all of REACH’s programs that help many children in Siem Reap.
