January 2008 - Canvas Melbourne held a fundraiser and donated $20,000 to build sleeping quarters at Green Gecko, we hope to have this project completed before the rainy season as 70 kids are currently sleeping in one small shelter. (refer below)

 

 

August 2007- Green Gecko has finally secured a 15 year lease on a place of its very own. 1.25 acres of former rice paddy, just 3 rice paddies and a comfortable stroll from the last Gecko House. They didn’t expect to move so quickly but for the sake of the kids’ safety and stability, they wanted a place big enough to have the night shelter and centre at the same location.

There is nothing on the land except a crocodile pit (with 4 live crocs), lots of mud and water and one traditional house (4 times smaller than the last place) however in true Khmer style they successfully managed to squish in a store room, staff area, computer room, a library, first aid room, kitchen, toilet (1 squat for 70 people), sleeping space for 16 boys, a meeting room and 2 classrooms!
