Chenla works to save lives while creating lasting change in the public sector’s ability to provide high-quality pediatric health services in Cambodia.
about us
Our team has the extensive experience, invaluable practical skills and knowledge needed to serve our community.
What we do
Chenla Children’s Healthcare works within the pediatric wards of the Cambodian government referral hospitals to greatly strengthen the government system’s ability to provide compassionate, high-quality care.
Utilizing existing government facilities, medication, supplies, and staff, combined with Chenla’s NGO resources, we provide compassionate international-standard medical care to children suffering from infectious disease, febrile illness, premature birth, and a broad range of other pediatric diseases.
Strengthening the social contract between the local community and the public healthcare system forms the foundation of what we do. We provide all services free of charge for poor patients and their families.
Currently working in Kratie, Mondulkiri, and Stung Treng, we seek to replicate to further areas where the needs are greatest.

BiAnnual Report 2024 out now!
Unbelievably, eight years have passed since Bill and I took the leap and moved to Kratie Province, naively envisioning a plan to meet the health care needs of children in the region. Thanks to the incredible efforts of our staff in cooperation with the local government, we now run pediatric facilities in three provinces.
During a tour of the eastern side of Cambodia this summer, the Minister of Health of the Royal Government of Cambodia visited Chenla and was astounded to see the progress of pediatric care in the region’s health facilities. He requested to meet with Bill and me this fall to discuss collaboration at a higher level, with the potential to extend pediatric care to other remote government facilities.
