Story
“A child without an education is like a bird without wings.”
Tibetan Proverb
In Cambodia, poverty and inequity remain high, leading to everyday insecurities such as insufficient access to safe and secure housing; water and sanitation; quality education; healthcare and nutrition among those living in the urban poor communities where ISF works. 40% of the population live on less than US$2 a day, meaning not only do families often go hungry but that the responsibility of earning an income often falls on children and leads to them missing out on school.
Addressing poverty and inequity in access to quality education, health and nutrition is at the core of our work at ISF. Across both our education centres, we now provide more than 700 disadvantaged Cambodian children with a comprehensive fast-track education, allowing them to ‘catch up’ to the correct grade for their age, join government-run schools and ultimately, find stable employment.
Thank you for all your support over the last 16 years.
All the funds raised will be applied to the Education Programme.

ISF - Indochina Starfish Foundation Australia
The Indochina Starfish Foundation (ISF) helps some of the poorest, most disadvantaged children in Cambodia.
ISF believes that Cambodian children living in extreme poverty can build a brighter, more sustainable future when they have access to quality education, healthcare and sport.
We offer a fast-track education programme to almost 700 disadvantaged students living in Cambodia’s capital Phnom Penh, who have either never been to school or who have had to drop out due to extreme poverty. Our programme condenses two years of education into one year to enable students to ‘catch up’ to the correct grade for their age and enter state school after completion. Once enrolled in state school, we offer students ongoing support to complete their primary and secondary education.
We also believe that valuable life lessons and opportunities can be found outside the classroom and currently run Cambodia’s largest grassroots community football programme. Opportunities to play sport competitively are limited for the majority of Cambodian children and opportunities for children with disabilities to play sport in Cambodia are almost non-existent.
Our inclusive football programme comprises almost 4,000 young players of all abilities We offer weekly training sessions and integrate social impact training, covering topics such as substance abuse, gender equality, children’s rights and many more relevant issues related to the communities where we work. In addition, we run a number of annual tournaments, festivals and a youth league.
