Our Programs

Scholarship Program
This program covers tuition fees, textbooks, and training to develop soft skills at JWOC’s purpose-built Learning Hub. Given this opportunity, low-income students build the capacity to overcome challenges they face in reaching their goals.

Better Futures Program
Local high school students aged 15 to 18, as well as recent graduates and drop-outs receive the guidance they need to take the first step towards their career goals. After graduating from the program, students can make informed decisions about whether they pursue further education, vocational training, or work.

Resilient Youth Leadership Project
The RYL Project is unique because it is incorporated across our two main programs, University Scholarships and Better Futures. The aim of RYL is to provide youth practical skills in leadership, project management and community engagement to all our students.

Access Program
Launched in 2022, this is a collaborative effort between JWOC and the US Embassy to develop and enhance English language, personal and professional development, as well as American cultural values to our high school students.

Our History
In 2005, JWOC founders Brandon and Andrea Ross moved to Cambodia from the United States to set up a boutique hotel.
Observing the needs of the population, and the desire of travelers to provide support, they saw an opportunity to work as an intermediary between them. Years later JWOC has become more than they ever dreamed possible.
How you can help!
Since its inception, over 200 students have graduated from JWOC’s Scholarship program.
These students have gone on to do amazing things, creating what we call the JWOC ‘ripple effect’; whereby one young person improves the lives of those around them.
