We wish to thank all our donors who made it possible to provide a total of 92 bicycles to rural Cambodian students in 2019.
On December 3, 2019 Trailblazer delivered its third batch of bicycles for the year. Thirty-one bicycles were delivered to students of Toul Krous Primary School in Khun Ream commune, Banteay Srey district, Siem Reap province. There are 330 students who attend this Kindergarten through 6th grade school.
Banteay Srey district is one of the 12 districts in Siem Reap province, and is a new district area that Trailblazer Foundation will work in during 2020, and beyond, as requested by government officials.
Banteay Srey district has a poverty rate of 19.3% and is one of the poorest districts in Siem Reap province. The percentage rate of children between the ages of 6 and 14 years old attending school is 81%. The literacy rate of students between the ages of 15 to 17 years old is just under 95%.
The support for bicycles is an important step in continuing and growing the education of children in this poor rural district. Providing bicycles help build literacy rates because students are able to progress from primary school to secondary school to continue their education.
Your donation(s) have contributed to this success. These students will be the future of Cambodia and help develop their country. Thank you again for supporting the education of these rural students.
