It's official. The first month of class at the beautiful new Battambang Secondary School is complete! Ever since the school dedication earlier this year, it's been a busy couple months for our leadership in Cambodia: we've interviewed and hired teachers, outfitted classrooms, evaluated and purchased curricula, and enrolled students.

And, after all that hard work, the real work of has just begun. Not only are we providing Asia's Hope kids with a first-class secondary education, and we've also set ourselves the ambitious goal of being a resource to the surrounding community — offering free and deeply discounted tuition to underprivileged youth who would otherwise be unable to attend school.

These kids are Asia's Hope, and we're thankful for everyone who believes in these kids as much as we do, and especially the individual donors and churches who've made this project possible.
