The mission of Bridge of Life School is to provide educational and community based programming based on community input and need:
We build bridges to solve problems and create opportunities by teaching, training, and supporting local individuals and communities.
We work with motivated students and communities who actively participate on their own accord, without financial compensation. We do not discriminate and welcome all to participate in our educational programs.
We consider ourselves a Khmer not-for-profit. We hire Khmer staff who come from and have a direct relationship to the communities where we work whenever possible. We invest our resources into staff over aesthetics.
We maintain an openness to different ideas and strategies; our approach is grassroots and always flexible; we try new things, often make mistakes, but learn from them and share them with others.
We value community ownership, keeping sustainability in mind as a long-term goal through the development of separate, income generating enterprises that financially support our organization.
