Sam Goes Silent For a Goodbye
Story
Last year on November 8th and 9th, I gave up speaking to raise money for OIC Cambodia and to raise awareness for those with communication difficulties. OIC Cambodia is a small NGO working towards a Cambodia where each of these people receives the help they need to communicate with those around them, and lead full and happy lives.
As someone who talks a lot, giving up speaking was difficult. Giving up speaking during the election and results of the 2016 election was extremely difficult. I learned a lot about myself, and about what it means to not be able to communicate with people in a way they find helpful.
At the end of September I am finishing my contract with OIC Cambodia, but not finishing working with them. As a good bye gift, and to remind myself why what OIC Cambodia does is important, I am giving up speaking for up to 24 hours on October 28th.
Won't you join me in supporting OIC Cambodia and the work they are doing?
Donations made through this platform are secure and will be remitted directly through to Global Development Group for project J703N OIC Cambodia to help with their efforts to bring speech therapy to the at least 600,000 Cambodians in need of services.

OIC Cambodia (Education) (Global Development Group – J703N)
OIC Cambodia (Education) is a Global Development Group approved aid and development project (J703N) which aims to address the gap in health services in Cambodia for more than 600,000 people with a communication or swallowing disability.
Communicating with others is at the heart of being human and helping people communicate is at the heart of what we do. We are working towards a Cambodia where each of these people receives the speech therapy services they need to communicate with those around them, and lead full and happy lives.
We have two significant goals to addressing the speech therapy needs in Cambodia:
- To train teachers in speech therapy-based inclusive education to better include children with communication disabilities into schools. This project will benefit 180 teachers and 5,400 children with communication disabilities across six provinces in Cambodia.
- To graduate the first generation of Cambodian speech therapists from a Cambodian university.
OIC Cambodia is proud to be a partner for Project J703N OIC Cambodia (Education) with Global Development Group (ABN: 57 102 400 993), an Australian DFAT approved Non-Government Organisation.
