Since we believe that education is of primary importance for the development of local communities and a better understanding of environmental protection, Kingfisher Ecolodge created a fund to support the primary school of Khiet Ngong village (more than 120 children). 5% of the price paid by our guests doing one of our activity will be part of the fund.

In order to guarantee that all donations will reach the intended target we have agreed with the village chief as well as the school authorities that, as soon as we have available a sum to donate, we will request them a list of what is needed first, we than purchase the materials and hand them over directly to the school.

We also welcome all kind of donations from our customer, we will take care that everything will reach the right destination.

The following is a list of the amount used to support the village school as well as a description of the use of that money.
