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
What we do
Chenla Children’s Healthcare works within the pediatric wards of the Cambodian government referral hospitals to 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, Stung Treng, and Ratanakiri, we seek to replicate to further areas where the needs are greatest.

Since June, Cambodia has faced a serious dengue fever outbreak and the children and families Chenla Children’s Healthcare serves have been hit hard. Case numbers have more than doubled and our teams at each location have been working around the clock, without letting quality or compassion slip for any child who comes to us with dengue or otherwise.
This level of response happens because of the support you have built with us. Of course, it has put a strain on our finances, but we are pleased to share our current financial update with you. We remain determined to push onwards and we are thankful to be able to share our honest needs.

Thank you for a decade of support and beyond – it has meant that we are now able to serve a population of 1 million people, with over 200,000 children and babies having already received potentially life-saving care, and a lasting impact on the healthcare system in Cambodia.
