This October half-term, Emily Walton, Bluesoup’s Head of Digital, joined Edukid on an unforgettable trip to Cambodia.

Bluesoup donates 10% of its profits to Edukid, and this journey was not only a way to support the trip but also an opportunity to witness first-hand how those contributions make a real difference.

“During my weeklong trip, I created some truly unforgettable experiences with the team from Edukid and all the young people I met along the way.

We met some of the rural communities supported by Edukid, which highlighted the profound difference educational funding can make.

One evening, I was honoured to meet a few of the university students who are funded by Bluesoup – we dined on frogs, beetles and crickets washed down with a green fanta! Rathana, in particular, blew me away – she works tirelessly in her community as an intern and teaching English, and then goes to university at the weekend, where she studies full-time. Her passion and commitment were so inspiring and it reinforced the value of Edukid’s work.

I am proud to be part of an organisation like Bluesoup who support Edukid in creating opportunities that empower and inspire communities and individuals. It was an experience that will stay with me for a lifetime.”
