Holt began caring for Cambodian children and families in the 1970s, first in refugee camps in neighboring Thailand where thousands of Cambodians fled to escape civil war and the brutal authoritarian rule of the Khmer Rouge regime.
Today, Holt allies with sponsors and donors to help protect children at risk of trafficking and exploitation, provide the resources families need to rise above poverty, and help children thrive in the loving care of their families or join loving, permanent families via in-country adoption in Cambodia. Read stories about Holt’s work in Cambodia, children and families in our programs, and how sponsors and donors make a difference in their lives!
