Emma Horsfall
Emma Horsfall brought fun and games to AP as she taught our beginner English classes to Ream (pictured left), Channy, Lina and newest student Sreynak. There was always a lot of laughter coming from the front room as the children enjoyed learning new English words, phrases, drawing colorful pictures, watching English DVDs and learning new English songs.
Emma was in Phnom Penh for six months and volunteered at AP while also working at another NGO. She has headed home to the UK to complete her teaching qualifications. Thankyou Emma for bringing your love, your hugs, and positive energy to everyone at AP! We wish you all the best for your new adventures ahead.

‘Crab Grab’ raises money for AP!
Kaylie and her sorority |
AP would like to say a big thanks to previous volunteer Kaylie Wallace and her sorority, who raised funds for Aziza’s Place this September.
Sorority ‘Pi Beta Phi’, the Virginia Epsilon chapter of 100 girls from the University of Virginia, hosted a ‘Crab Grab’ event where students came to eat crabs and donate money to their national charity. This year the team did some extra work and sold t-shirts to raise funds for Aziza’s Place.
Kaylie continues to support AP by keeping in touch with her previous students via email. She is excited to be able to extend her support further by getting her friends and community involved too. Thankyou girls for supporting AP from home!
