IHM is working to help poor children in Cambodia, providing them with the support and resources like school and shelter they need to thrive. Through their programs, they are providing access to education, healthcare, and other essential services that these children might not otherwise receive. Their work is making a real difference in the lives of these children and their families, and I am continually inspired by their dedication and compassion. If you are looking for a worthy cause to support, I would highly recommend considering this organization – they are truly making a difference in the world.

There are countless non-profit organizations working tirelessly to help communities in need around the world, but few are as deserving of recognition as the one supporting stateless Vietnamese children and their families in Cambodia. The International Humanitarian Missions (IHM), which I had the pleasure of learning about recently, is doing incredible work to provide essential services and support to a highly marginalized group of people.

The situation of stateless Vietnamese children in Cambodia is a complex one, but essentially boils down to this: many of these children were born in Cambodia to Vietnamese parents who themselves migrated to Cambodia years ago. Because they are not recognized as citizens of either country, they are effectively stateless and lack access to basic services like healthcare, education, and legal protections. They face discrimination and often live in extreme poverty.

Thankfully, IHM is stepping in to help. Through a combination of direct services and advocacy efforts, they are working to improve the lives of these children and their families. One of their most important initiatives is their healthcare program, which provides free medical care to stateless Vietnamese people living in Cambodia. This is a critical service, as many of these individuals are unable to access healthcare otherwise. The organization also provides essential food and shelter assistance, helping to alleviate some of the extreme poverty that these families face on a daily basis.

Another key area of focus for the organization is education. They run a school that serves hundreds of stateless Vietnamese children, providing them with a safe and supportive learning environment. The curriculum is designed to be culturally sensitive and relevant to the children's experiences, and the school is staffed by experienced teachers who are dedicated to helping these children succeed. The organization is also working on offering vocational training programs, which give older students the skills they need to find employment and support themselves and their families.

In addition to these direct services, the organization is also doing important advocacy work. They are working to raise awareness about the plight of stateless Vietnamese people in Cambodia, and are advocating for policy changes that would help these individuals gain legal recognition and access to basic services. They are also working to combat discrimination against this group, which is a major barrier to their integration into Cambodian society.

Overall, I was incredibly impressed by the work of this non-profit organization. The challenges faced by stateless Vietnamese children and their families in Cambodia are immense, but the organization is rising to meet them with compassion, dedication, and a deep commitment to justice. Their direct services are making a tangible difference in the lives of these children and families, while their advocacy efforts are helping to create long-term change. I would encourage anyone looking to support a worthy cause to consider donating to this organization – they are doing truly incredible work.

Volunteering for the nonprofit organization IHM in Cambodia was an amazing and life-changing experience. It was heartwarming to serve the poor and improvised children and their families. IHM provided essential services and support to those in need, and I felt honored to be a part of it. Overall, it was a fulfilling and worthwhile experience that I would highly recommend to others.

During my time volunteering with IHM in Cambodia, I was able to witness firsthand the impact that the organization had on the local community. Not only did they provide essential services such as healthcare, education, and food assistance, but they also created a sense of community and belonging for those they served.
Seeing the school built during Covid was also amazing; now the children has a safe place to go.

It was truly remarkable to witness the construction of the school during the pandemic. Now, the children have a secure and safe place to attend.

One of the most memorable experiences I had during my time with IHM was working with the children. Despite the challenges they faced, they were always filled with joy and enthusiasm. We spent our days playing games, learning new skills, and simply enjoying each other's company. It was truly heartwarming to see the positive impact that IHM had on their lives.

In addition to working with the children, I also had the opportunity to assist with various community outreach programs. From distributing food and clothing to organizing health clinics, IHM truly went above and beyond to support the local community.
Overall, volunteering with IHM in Cambodia was a humbling and rewarding experience. I am grateful for the opportunity to have been a part of such an incredible organization, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to make a difference in the world.

We were introduced to IHM through friends who had volunteered with the organization and saw first hand the dedication, selflessness, and sincere vested interest in improving the lives of the stateless Vietnamese community in Cambodia. Since then, we have donated funds for the construction of a school, which despite the agonizing delays due to the pandemic, came to fruition and is thriving. We are also now sponsors who provide the monthly financial support needed for the educational needs of the individual students ... an education that will liberate them from their current deplorable living conditions. From the administrative Board to the volunteers, our experience with IHM has been nothing but positive and truly impressive.

I am glad that we made a difference in these communities.

iHumane Mission is an amazing non-profit, where all donations go straight to the kids and the school. My family was able to participate with one of the missionary work this organization setup in 2021, and we've seen first hand the lives they are changing. They have an education team who were there to observe and introduce the kids to education in the U.S. They also have a big team of medical doctors, optometrist, dentist, and pediatricians seeing hundreds of parents and kids to go give them free health care. All the proceed for this mission was donated by the attendees, their time and their money. They have been doing this for 20+ years, but have finally made this an official non-profit organization, reaching out to more generous supporter. Way to go iHumane!

I have been a member of International Humanitarian Missions from the beginning and am grateful to be part of this organization that is doing so much for the stateless ethnic Vietnamese in Cambodia.
This is a group of seriously committed people focused on doing the most good in places where few others are serving. I consider my involvement with IHM to be the single most important cause I will be involved in for however much longer I have here on earth.
If you have serious interest in serving in a God-honoring cause, please consider partnering with us. It will give you a special kind of joy that only comes with this sort of service.

I have witnessed how everyone in the team is eager in changing lives of the needy, specifically the forgotten people in Tonle Sap Lake. The organization has done so much in the span of a few years. Many children were able to go to school, have decent meals and have a clearer path to pursue their dreams. Great job, IHM! The world needs more of this
