Book Club

Introduction

Nowadays there are a lot of problems happening in Cambodia. After the civil war and International war for many decades Cambodians got suffered again and again. The resources for all kinds are destroyed tremendously. The neighbor countries are insisting to invade very often.

One thing we cannot put up our country because we do not have enough human resources. In order to help the country we are trying our best to build up the culture of reading for Cambodian students through creating BOOK CLUB. Firstly, it was a club named Research to share club. We transfer from that club into Book Club. We do not have money to buy the books for our members. So what we can do is to bring the books from home. To continue the reading we raise the money weekly form member to buy the books. Furthermore, we try to find the donors to help us. Actually, even thought, Book Club is created in American Corner but we do not use any money package of American Corner.

We will do our best to extend the place and get more people to read for getting knowledge. Then we are able to develop our country.

Thanks to very one to give us times to do it.
