Letter from the DBCF Director
During eight years with the DBCF, I have realized that even small
gifts can make big differences in the lives of poor children. We have all
formed a commitment to poor and abandoned children in Cambodia with
generosity and kindness. Many of them have finished their basic education
and have either gone to continue their high school studies or have gone to
work Let us continue our dedication and good work knowing that we are
helping “God’s children”.

DBCF seeks to change society by Education and Training
To offer equal opportunities to poor Cambodian children to access
compulsory education and training with proper TVET facilities, equipments and
infrastructure, Don Bosco Children Fund is constructing two four-classroom
buildings at Salabalat. One building activity is being sponsored by the Don Bosco
Kinderfonds Holland and Kindermissions Germany through the facilitation of
Mr. Hector and Ms. Ellen Loontjiens and many Dutch friends. The couple
personally came to initiate the construction last March 6-7, 2009 that will foster
hope and joy with the opening of the school year 2009-2010. Upon completion
of the new buildings, the old classrooms will be used for WORKSHOPS in
Engine, Electricity and Welding/Mechanics. The new four-classroom building will
be used for new curriculum studies and computer-IT sections.

Recognizing Educational Change, DBCF embraces Spirituality
DBCF is embarking on the next phase of strengthening Don Bosco Education. “Visioning for the Future”
will continue the work of the DBCF Strategic Plan in Education that began in 2007 focusing on high quality edu-
cation slanted with technology and value education. Through careful planning, collaboration and strong leadership
of the teachers and staff and strong parental and community involvement, Don Bosco Schools Battambang will
remain venues of academic and vocational excellence, spirituality and value education and development. Leading
the planning process is the DBCF National Secretariat. The overall objective of updating the strategic plan is to
ensure vitality, viability and accessibility of Don Bosco Education in Cambodia.
DBCF Promoters of “one Family
in Mission”- Year of Priests
“My role as a Besucco Boy” would be to point to Christ and
Don Bosco- for strength and hope”! Every Besucco Boy agrees “I
want to be a sign of service and love of God for all”. In Cambodia
because of the DBCF Ministries, children and your men are hear-
ing the call to serve the Lord as “role models” for others? Will you
support their studies, helping them to be “signs and bearers of
God’s love” among their own people? Support and contributions
are welcome
