PEPY

PEPY is an organization dedicated to the educational and professional development of Cambodian youth, particularly those from rural and agricultural backgrounds. The entity provides scholarships that enable students to access critical learning opportunities, such as English language and computer classes, which are positioned as essential for professional work.

Its operational model centers on a Learning Center and partnerships with local teachers to deliver a curriculum focused on practical skills. This includes comprehensive soft skill and IT courses designed to prepare individuals for social entrepreneurship or to build resilience in their careers. For high school students, PEPY offers elective courses that cover goal setting, mentorship, and networking.

The organization also facilitates cultural exchange programs with international students and engages volunteers in its programs and administrative work, offering them professional experience. A key aspect of its operations is a commitment to child safety, demonstrated by its induction into the Child Safe Alliance network. The core mission is to equip young Cambodians with the skills, opportunities, and inspiration needed to pursue careers that improve their quality of life.
