History
Neak Oknha Mengly J. Quach, MD, MPH started doing his charitable works since he was 10 years old by helping to provide food to poor people in the US. He used to work in a charity that provided free medical services to the poor and homeless while he was a medical student. He stated that his grandparents and parents liked showing kindness to others and helping the most-in-need people. That was the reason he wants to give back to society. These good deeds and virtue inspired Neak Oknha Mengly J. Quach, MD, MPH to found Mengly J. Quach Foundation.
Cambodian Institute of Child and Adolescent Health (CICAH) was a local non-governmental organization established under the initiative of Neak Oknha Mengly J. Quach, MD, MPH in 2004 to promote education amongst many disadvantaged children through scholarships. In order to extend its activities, at the end beginning of 2013, CICAH has since been re-branded to Mengly J. Quach Foundation. In 2013, Mengly J. Quach Foundation officially became a registered organization in the Ministry of Interior with registration number 971, dated June 6, 2013.
The majority of its funds are the profits of Mengly J. Quach Education. MJQE staff and students help support Mengly J. Quach Foundation through various activities and events in order to help raise funds and other in-kind donations. The CSR activities are aligned with NGOs which are governed by the Ministry of Interior (MoI) of Cambodia.

It also has mobile library every month and food banking twice a month. For our food banking, they collect foods from those who want to donate and distribute them to poor communities. Usually, the mobile library and mobile clinic will also go along.
