In 1997, the Sihanouk Hospital Center of HOPE was established by people from varied races, religions and places to save lives. HOPE worldwide was there when it opened and has proudly managed the hospital since.
Recently, Washington Post writer Katherine Marshall highlighted SHCH as "Interfaith Health-Care Reform: Faith in Action."
In her article, Marshall states,
"the hospital's name is apt: Hope, because this is a well-run facility, bustling with doctors from many countries. And a central principle is that care is free of charge, and available to anyone. Cambodian people sell their last bullock and travel for days to get here. They call it the hospital of God or the hospital of angels."
The mission of SHCH is to provide a center for the further education and clinical training of medical professionals, while delivering 24-hour high-quality, free medical care for the poor and needy in Cambodia.
