It is the belief of the Orphanage Center Project that the Cambodia children's quality of life will be greatly enhanced, fostered, and maintained through the participation in the Orphanage Project made possible by matching donors and individual donations. The orphan children will be empowered to learn, to grow, and to function at their highest level of physical, mental, and social well-being. At the Orphanage Center, the children will be provided with many opportunities in education, health care, and computer technology. The Orphanage Center Project team wants to create an environment conductive for interaction and socialization, personal satisfaction, spirit growth, and recognition. The Orphanage Center facility will include involvement of staff, family, friends, and volunteers.

Hi, I need some help reaching out to the Cambodian community in Charlotte about the importance of filling out the US 2010 Census and making sure Cambodians benefit from the Census. A meeting is taking place today that will answer the Charlotte Asian community's US 2010 Census questions. Will you send out the info below to English-speaking members of the Cambodian community and any other Asian connections you have in the Charlotte area? They can help non-English speakers by telling them about the census and answering their questions. Let's make sure the Asian community is not undercounted! Feel free to contact me if you have questions. If you miss the meeting, I can still provide assistance! Just email me.

Thanks,
