19 February, 2010Interested in volunteering for a couple of weeks (or more) in Cambodia? The One-2-One Charitable Trust is involved in providing dental services to the poor in Cambodia, and works with one of the two dental schools and several local NGOs. At the Faculty of Dentistry, International University up to 40 children per day (mainly orphans) are treated in a large multichair dental clinic. The dental school is short of staff skilled in treating children, and would welcome visits by therapists for one or more weeks to help supervise students and provide some treatment as necessary. The clinic also sees a lot of adult patients with perio problems and would also welcome dental hygienists to help students with their perio treatment. In addition, One-2-One has Saturday visits to local prisons to provide treatment, and occasional trips of up to 5 days to provincial areas, in order to provide treatment for orphans and poor children. They use mobile equipment for these trips. If you are interested in volunteering please get in touch with One-2-One. You will need to pay for your own airfare, food, and accommodation (from $US16 a night in Phnom Penh - single room). For provincial outreach visits of several days, we ask for your help in funding these trips, as we also take Cambodian dental student volunteers who cannot afford to pay for themselves.
