New Hope for Cambodian Children was founded in 2006 with an aim to assist the Cambodian children affected with HIV/AIDS and their families. It was founded in 2006 in collaboration with the Royal Government of Cambodia and Non-Governmental Organizations. It has a multi-disciplinary approach that aims to provide a home-based support to the underprivileged and disadvantaged children currently on ARV medication. It focuses on providing a holistic care to the orphans and abandoned children with HIV/AIDS that have no other source of social support.

Mission

The mission of the organization is to assist the Cambodian children with HIV/AIDS and their affected families and gives them a new hope for life.

History

New Hope for Cambodian Children is a registered charity organization that works with the Ministry of Interior in the Kingdom of Cambodia under license from the United States tax code. It began in 2006 when an American couple came to Cambodia to assist the people dying from HIV/AIDS. They realized that when the adults died, they left behind children who got no care and support from the community. Since these children were also infected with HIV/AIDS, many of them had deteriorating health and were dying themselves. It was then that they took the initiative for these Cambodian children and began raising funds for the purchase of their medication. They purchased the antiretroviral medications (ARVs) that helped to suppress the virus and made it inactive for a time.

The New Hope for Cambodian Children initiative quickly became the largest HIV/AIDS treatment program for children in Southeast Asia providing medication to more than 400 children. Later it started supporting almost 4000 Cambodian children in fighting the disease. The works of NHCC drew the attention of many other charity organizations towards this cause. This reduced the burden on NHCC to provide medications for all the HIV/AIDS affected children in Cambodia. Because of this, the New Hope for Cambodian Children was able to focus on its social, nutritional and educational support for the affected children.
