DHL and Teach For Cambodia Partner to Upskill Youth and Prepare them for the Working World

DHL Express Cambodia, DHL Global Forwarding Cambodia and DHL Supply Chain Cambodia, all divisions of Deutsche Post DHL Group (DPDHL Group) have launched a partnership today with Teach For Cambodia, a network partner of Teach For All. 

The partnership aims to promote employability to youth in Cambodia through exposure to the working world and access to mentors and business leaders from DHL. This marks DPDHL Group‘s 19th partnership with the Teach For All network under the new strategic framework and focus to help nurture the employability and life skills of students around the world. 

Monirath Siv, Founder and CEO of Teach For Cambodia said,  ”It is part of our vision that students will have the motivation, commitment and work ethic to be self-starters, believe in the correlation between effort and success, and value the personal growth born out of overcoming challenges more than merely pursuing the ?easy path‘. We believe that the partnership with DHL will help us achieve this vision by exposing our youth to the working world and providing them with a platform to make connections with business leaders.”

The partnership will see DHL employees volunteering to support over 60 Teach For Cambodia Fellows, who will in turn impact nearly 9,000 students across more than 15 schools in Cambodia by the end of 2019. Volunteer activities will target youth in secondary education and will focus on soft skills training and career awareness programs.
