Mith Samlahn is the local Cambodian branch of the global NGO "Friends International". Mith Samlahn works to help marginalized children realize their full potential so that their communities may grow and develop from the inside out. The ATOZ Foundation has partnered with the Fondation Juniclair to support a specific Mith Samlahn project to give street children in Chbar Ampov, an extremely disadvantaged district of Cambodia's capital, Phnom Penh, a chance to get back into the formal school system.

From outreach programs which aid in making first contact and developing relationships with children and families, to opportunities for non-formal learning to stimulate young minds, to remedial education to prepare children for the final goal of reintegration into public schools, the project provides continued support to families and children.

This support may come in many different forms including nutritious meals, safe transportation to and from schools and community centers, school supplies and emergency material aid to families. Psycho-social support and academic tutoring also help ensure that all children succeed in their studies once they have reentered formal education. The Mith Samlahn project positively impacts the lives of 16,000 children and their family members each year.
