Visit the PSE school in Phnom Penh, it's possible!
We are delighted to welcome you to the PSE school for a guided tour of our various programmes, in French, English or Khmer.
For those of you who are already donors, this visit will give us the opportunity to show you the actions that you generously fund.
For others, the visit will be an opportunity to see for yourselves the scale of our programmes and our method of getting children out of poverty and into work. Our aim is to convince you to become a PSE donor. During the visit, we'll show you the different ways you can get involved with the association, in particular sponsorship. This is a regular donation which enables us to take full responsibility for the needs of the children helped by PSE, so that our missions can continue over the long term.

Have a lunch in PSE's restaurant
- by reservation only
The "Lotus Blanc" is a real restaurant which allows our young people from the Hotel School to train in real conditions. You will appreciate the quality of the service and the kindness of these young people, who you will find again a few months later in the best establishments in Cambodia.
Have your hair done by our students
- by reservation only
Relax, our students will take care of you! Manicure, pedicure, haircut, make-up... They will take care of you.
The salon is open to the public from Monday to Friday from 11.30am to 2.30pm.
Visit our shop: the handicrafts are made on site in our sewing workshop by the mothers of the children supported by PSE
- free access
Before leaving, a visit to the shop is a must! You'll find everything you need to delight your loved ones, while helping mothers of families in great difficulty.
The shop is open Monday to Friday from 8am to 5pm.
Book your visit
You will not be able to distribute materials directly to the children but you can entrust them to our leaders who will redistribute them fairly and according to the needs of the children.
Here is the list of what we may need:
- Second hand: clothes (children/adults), games, cuddly toys, childcare equipment, computer equipment, school equipment, English books (for children or in connection with our professional training)
- New: school material bought in Cambodia (IBC shop for example) not from abroad
How can you support PSE?
Sponsor a child to put a smile back on their face and help them in the long term
Pour un Sourire d'Enfant (PSE) takes care of the poorest children in Cambodia, whose living conditions are particularly difficult and precarious. Without the association, they would not be able to break the cycle of poverty in which they find themselves.
Sponsoring a poor child in Cambodia means changing their destiny and giving them the chance to make their dreams come true. Pour un Sourire d'Enfant offers them support from early childhood through to professional integration, and ensures that all their needs are taken care of so that nothing stands in the way of their education.
Volunteering to help children in Cambodia find a future
Volunteering with Pour un Sourire d'Enfant means joining teams, feeling useful and having a real impact, as our volunteers tell us: "We get involved with motivated people who want to make a difference", Laurent, PSE Nord.
Thanks to volunteering, we can take concrete action to help the poorest children in Cambodia. We receive funds while keeping our fundraising costs as low as possible!
Together, we can put a smile back on thousands of children's faces!
