An April Visit to CCH

If you had visited Center for Children's Happiness in April, you would have seen.......

Lots of children studying every night from 6:30-7:30 pm at study hall....

Olders helping youngers with their homework.....

You would have seen kids playing games.....

Everywhere, you would see hard working CCH staff....

Mech Sokha, CCH Director

Pen Dany, CCH Vice-Director (Sokha's wife)

Chum Sitha, Director of the CDCC facility and Chin Dalina, teacher of Grades 2 and 3

Pho Phanet, Office manager and assistant to Sokha

Pho Phanny, CCH cook

Ly An, CDCC staff and director of the CCH Road Show

You might have seen work on the new CCH Youth House...

You would have seen everybody eating well....

Fish

Vegetables

Rice, of course!!

Clean water, and a new dining room area

Special treats like this peanut based preparation

and clean up afterward

You might have traveled with the CCH Road Show...

Setting up at a village

warming up the crowd

doing makeup

Doing the show

Games after the show

and reading time, too.

Village kids saying goodbye to the Road Show

There would have been chore times....

Laying concrete in a CCH side yard

scrubbing the floors

and sweeping

And, of course, you'd have seen many extraordinary faces...

And when you left, life would still be moving on....
