PEPY sounds like a fit
Elizabeth,
This organization sounds like a fit for the Geotourism Challenge20 .
Daniel Papi heads Pepyride, an NGO in Cambodia funded through responsible tour operations and adventure voluntour operator funding sustainable educational projects. This hybrid model generates thousands of dollars for education programs in rural Cambodia connecting travelers and supporters to the development initiatives. I will contact Daniel letting her know about the Challenge.
